Synopsis
Britain, 1960s
Cragge is a lone maverick in a sea of uniformity. As the final school bell looms for him and four others, his staunch refusal to submit to the oppressive edicts of school rules or bow to the rigid hierarchy of his peers marks him. This rebellion sparked a clash with the powers that be, attracting harsh physical punishments from both the student body and the school authorities.
Reckord weaves a compelling critique of the educational system through Cragge’s turbulent journey, delivering an unflinchingly real depiction of the battleground that is both classroom and playground.
