Summary: | Ned, a bullied outsider, and Conor, a star athlete, are forced to room together at their boarding school. The boys take an instant dislike to each other, and seem destined to remain enemies until an English teacher, Mr. Sherry, begins to drill into them the value of finding one's own voice. This lesson, however, isn't appreciated by everyone, particularly rugby coach Pascal, who has his own agenda and harbors some deep suspicions about the boys' teacher. Nominated for Best Irish Feature Film at the **Dublin Film Critics Circle Awards**. Winner of Best Irish Feature at the **Dublin International Film Festival**. Winner of Best Narrative Feature and Best Actor (Fionn O'Shea) at **FilmOut San Diego**. *"The sweetness, poignancy and breezy humor of this Emerald Isle bildungsroman also make it pretty darn impossible to resist." - David Rooney, **Hollywood Reporter*** *"... A queer version of Wes Anderson's 'Rushmore.'" - Armond White, **Out Magazine***
