1) The short film is about a group of deviant youths who bully a boy and his father. They film themselves hitting the father and follow him home, mocking and abusing others on social media. 2) Scenes show the youths hanging around a corner shop causing a nuisance on their bikes while listening to loud music. 3) In a surprising turn, the father's young son hits the bullies with a cricket bat when they follow them home, causing them to bleed, subverting the expectation that the father would confront them.
