Overview
The story of an unruly class of bright, funny history students at a Yorkshire grammar school in pursuit of an undergraduate place at Oxford or Cambridge. Bounced between their maverick English master, a young and shrewd teacher hired to up their test scores, a grossly out-numbered history teacher, and a headmaster obsessed with results, the boys attempt to pass.
How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A witty, literate ensemble film about a group of talented boys navigating adolescence, ambition, and desire under the watch of conflicting teachers. It's a tender comedy about youth that knows precisely how fleeting it all is.
