As part of the Festival of Anarchy, the Montreal Rad School presents "The War on Kids".  This film exposes the many ways the public school system has failed children by robbing students of all freedoms due largely to irrational fears.  Children are subjected to endure prison-like security, arbitrary punishments, and pharmacological abuse.  Schools not only fail to educate students, but the drive to teach has become secondary to the need to control kids.
