If your whole life, you have been belittled, bullied, not being taken seriously by other your own family or anyone else ... you will be quite susceptible to almost anything that show interest in you. Be it a woman and/or her friends, that may or may not be criminal (though to be fair it is quite obvious and not really a question that is tough to answer).
Having said that, the main character is very well drawn and his circumstances make you feel for and with him. It is throwback and goes back to a time, where everything was easier ... and tougher at the same time. Growing up back then had its own issues, but you did not have social media to mock and make fun of you. I can only imagine the level of bullying that is going on in todays schools.
But that is a side note in the whole story. Because what we do get is a twisted love story. A very complicated one - one where two persons that like each other seem unable to find each other. No pun intended ... but many great love stories had the biggest obstacles, so maybe that is a good sign ... and maybe not.
Really well done and well acted, this gives you an enticing and gripping thriller ...
