Durch Schnitt
At the age of 13, Robin dropped out of school. His grades were insufficient, even at a special school, and to make matters worse, his health was deteriorating more and more. That was more than 20 years ago. Today, he runs his own hair salon. "Durch Schnitt" follows Robin's story, as the director talks to family members and people involved to find out how a child could fall through the Swiss school system and whether Robin would have been better off today.
