A Kind of Hush


Regret no image available. A British flick about a group of teenage boys, all of whom had been molested as children. They start taking revenge on the type of men who abuse boys, by entrapping them and beating them up. As their confidence grows, they begin to target the specific men who had abused them. The plot is complicated by one of their number who is trying to lead a normal life, get a girlfriend, keep a job, and help his sister -- who is also abused -- out. It gets pretty grim at times.
Regret no overseas commentary is available.
