The Knife in the Backpack

Violence, as spread like a germ within the family core. Three characters open their wounds to talk about the love, hostility and domestic violence surrounding them. A son walks through the memories of his growing up, trying to come to terms with his mother and his absent father. A father addresses to justify the consequences of his actions, after finding himself alone. And a mother tells the story about how her troubled son was destined to fail in life, after the shadow of his late brother, who was meant to become everything he couldn’t.
