A boys’ school. A group’s leader, as always, and a student who does not mingle with the others. His school-mates naturally make his life a nightmare.
This is how opens and starts this short-length film, written and directed by Charles Di Meglio, produced by Compagnie Oghma.
Pursuing his photographic research on teenage beauty, Charles Di Meglio will bring us into a world in which these Listless angels may become dangerous and destroying. Shot in black and white, the young boys will live through a real Greek tragedy, of which they are not aware, in a long, empty and cold-corridored school.
The shooting, which has taken place in the same order as the story unfolds, and with non-professional actors, was held from October 20, 2007 to May 31rst 2008, thence following the students throughout the year, and almost in real-time.
