Logline:
High school students are faced with challenging situation of confronting a moral dilemma about greed and moral transgressions: one of their classmates stole money collected for a schoolmate's prom night. Set in the classroom, the film scrutinizes the erosion of moral norms in modern times Montenegrin society, the Balkan transition, societal disparities.
Synopsis:
The story unfolds in two acts: Act 1: The story takes place in a classroom, where the teacher and the students are trying to find the missing money. The teacher's pedagogical approach clashes with the School Director's threat-laden quest for the culprit. Act 2: At a parents' meeting, contrasting attitudes emerge. Some parents downplay the event and suggest compromises, while the professor stresses moral analysis. This sharp contrast intensifies the drama, testing adult morality. A confession of guilt triggers an emotional catharsis, culminating in an attempted murder of thief, infusing the tale with echoes of ancient dramatic complexity.

Logline:
Srednjoškolci se suočavaju sa moralnom dilemom pohlepe i prekršaja – jedan od njih ukrao je novac za matursko veče. Film prikazuje urušavanje moralnih normi u savremenom crnogorskom društvu.
SInopsis:
Priča se odvija u dva čina: Čin 1: Priča se odvija u učionici, gdje nastavnik i učenici pokušavaju da pronađu novac koji nedostaje. Pedagoški pristup nastavnika sukobljava se sa potragom direktora škole za krivcem. Čin 2: Na sastanku roditelja pojavljuju se suprotni stavovi. Neki roditelji umanjuju događaj i predlažu kompromise, dok profesor naglašava moralnu analizu. Ovaj oštar kontrast pojačava dramu, testirajući moral odraslih. Priznanje krivice izaziva emocionalnu katarzu, koja kulminira pokušajem ubistva lopova, ubrizgavajući priču odjecima drevne dramske složenosti.
