At a prestigious New England boarding school, an unconventional English teacher encourages his students to think independently, embrace poetry, and pursue their own paths. His lessons challenge the institution’s strict traditions and the expectations placed on the boys by their families.
You’ll enjoy this thoughtful, emotional coming-of-age drama if you like stories about mentorship, individuality, and resisting conformity; Not for you if you want fast pacing, action, or a lighter school story.
