Anatomy of Rats

Smoker, a prefect in a boarding school, maintains order with weed and terror. Within the confines of the school, we witness a twisted version of a coming of age story of unbridled violence in the name of law and order, culminating tragically to the death of the bullied Dickhead. As the incident escalates and things go astray, Smoker faces a moral dilemma: Should he clear himself of further corruption, or should he act as an accomplice of the authorities?
