Trivia
The movie had a lot of scenes with the parents of the kids, but the director cut most of them in the editing room to keep an element of mystery. Those scenes are on the DVD.

Goofs
Aritz has burn marks on his right palm, but when he reaches to shake hands with the older teens, his right palm is burn free.

Quotes
Aritz: I'm gonna be the fuckin' outcast.
Esteban: You're not gonna be an outcast 'cause you got hit once. That's just bad luck.
Aritz: Today the reputations get handed out, and I'm fucked, all right?
Esteban: What's that about reputations?
Aritz: It's the first day, right? Today's the day reputations get handed out. These are reputations. You don't arrive as the outcast, the bully or the babe. All that lot give you your reputations. There's always gonna be an outcast, right?, and as we're missing a fat, spotty ginger, it's gonna be us. You and me.

A sad boy's dilemma

Aritz is troubled. He takes abuse and tells stories to explain his behavior. He's expansively nihilistic. Estaban is the nice guy who tries to keep Aritz from getting beat up. Estaban falls for the sadness of Aritz and at first there is also a lot of likability. They connect with Sara who has a streak of wildness and is attracted to Estaban, but is pretty unstable in her own way. As the story progresses Aritz spins more and more out of control and Estaban tries to rein him in. Aritz is needy and can't find love anywhere. He keeps asking Estaban and Sara if they love him but can't believe that anyone would or could. I found this story well put together and believable for the most part. Aritz is a charismatic sort who can draw you in.
