Conducta is the story of Chala, a kid who supports his alcoholic and drug addicted mother by breeding pigeons and training fighting dogs and who is loved and understood by his teacher.  However, he is sent to a school for children with behavioral problems when his teacher falls ill and is temporarily replaced by an inexperienced young teacher.  Nevertheless, Conducta transcends this anecdotal account to give the viewers truths that some people prefer not to see: the intolerance and unconditional adherence to formalities and bureaucratic rule; the futility of educating within a bell jar and the crime of refusing to alleviate wrongdoings on the pretext that it is not possible to eradicate them entirely.
