Sadamoto is 14 in a small town in the middle of nowhere. He barely communicates with his parents and he feels a superiority to his friends that bothers him. His fears are amplified by the bizarre methods of the teacher Kobayashi who has hung up a «humanity index» in the classroom. One day, Sadamoto and his friends are caught stealing and are forced to submit to parental punishment. The depth of self-loathing revealed in the essay of self-criticism he is required to write in mitigation shocks the boy as much as the teacher. It becomes increasingly clear that the mind games are out of control.
