Sensitive 12-year-old Alf is the low man on his class’ totem pole, and he’s sick of it. Forming a secret, Machiavellian alliance with another student who also has grown weary of being bullied, he hatches a plan to throw a wrench into the well-oiled gears of the school social order. Everything seems to go according to plan, until Alf discovers that turning the tables on his tormentors has its own dire consequences.
Tired of being bullied and humiliated at school, Alf decides to take action against his tormentors. He allies himself with a classmate and together they form a secret pact.
