Director‘s Statement:
This film takes place on a high school campus and addresses the issue of bullying. It is also a continuation of my previous short films, No Big Deal and Beat Him Up, both of which take as their subject the lives of teenagers in school. Boys will serve as the final installment of my Campus Life trilogy. I think most people know or can recall a classmate or two who is always left out from the rest of the students. During my studies at university, I witnessed seven boys isolating the eighth roommate in their dorm room. As students, we fear being different, being isolated, being excluded, and being unpopular… The clique culture in school always results in a few lone students who don’t fit in anywhere. In China, cases of school bullying have led to many tragedies: the student constantly bullied for his lower economic status who committed murder; the introverted student made fun of for his shyness who became addicted to drugs. Cases like these happen in schools around the world.
