Life goes on as normal until the arrival of Ikari, an enigmatic student who seems to be hiding something. Pol is fascinated by his new classmate and attracted to the dark side he harbors.

“Ted was funny and this might be considered funny to a degree too, but different kind of funny. The protagonist is more than flawed and that makes the movie so interesting and difficult too. Itu0026#39;s not like you will always be in touch with the character. You may also feel very alienated by his choices. But he still is enticing, because of the acting and the script.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eItu0026#39;s weird ideas therefor will either appeal to you or will make you hate the movie. This is not bog standard movie fare and is not full of clichés. And therefor something that I can only recommend to watch. Iu0026#39;m still surprised that people would rather watch something shallow and bad as u0026quot;Nothing left to fearu0026quot; and actually think this is at least as good as this (or better). But … different tastes it is”
