Scaffolding (2017)

In the heat of adolescence, Asher, a 17-year-old firebrand, threads a tumultuous path through life. A natural-born maverick, he's always been a tempest of impulse and rebellion, his restless spirit stirring up waves from primary school to high school. The classroom's four walls struggle to contain his storm of fury and violence, yet beneath the tempest lies an unexpected charm and a keen understanding of street wisdom. His father, a stern man with a scaffolding business etched into the family's lineage, sees Asher as the perfect heir to their construction legacy. But Asher's life takes a different turn when he crosses paths with Rami, his gentle literature teacher. The relationship unfolds into an unexpected mentorship, providing Asher with a fresh perspective and a masculine role model vastly different from his father. Torn between the rugged world of scaffolding and the profound realm of literature, Asher wrestles with his identity, yearning for a new life beyond his predetermined fate. But when tragedy abruptly strikes, Asher is thrown into the crucible, facing a test of maturity that will define him. Will he crumble under the weight of expectation and loss or will he rise, reshaped and stronger, like a phoenix from the ashes? This is Asher's journey in Scaffolding - a compelling exploration of adolescence, identity, and the relentless pursuit of self-discovery.
