Twelve-year-old Nel is obsessed with playing teks as he helps his parents augment their meager income by selling cigarettes. Surrounded by vice, gambling and random violence, Nel finds comfort playing this seemingly innocent game with his friends.

Nel's world comes to a head when violence hits home and his favorite game becomes passe. Written by Anonymous See less
