Description

Rage. What begins as an ordinary school day turns into a nightmare when troubled teenager Charlie Decker kills a teacher and takes his classmates hostage. Trapped together through a long, sweltering afternoon, the students are forced to confront their deepest fears, secrets, and frustrations. As Charlie recounts the events that drove him to violence, he systematically strips away the masks worn by those around him, challenging each person’s beliefs, identity, and sense of self-worth. Tense, unsettling, and psychologically charged, Rage is a provocative exploration of alienation, authority, anger, and the hidden pressures simmering beneath the surface of everyday life.
