The Class

A “Little Bandits” FILM
WRITTEN BY Little Bandits

Esmé smokes too much weed. Mason and Madison wish their parents would stop pushing their future sports career so hard. Izzy wants to manage a greenhouse. Aiden is looking to make a quick buck on anything. Will and Isaac are planning this weekends party. Noah is trying to grow his beard. Olivia wants her parents to stop fighting. Ella fakes her therapy sessions. Jackson and Elliott dream of fleeing the country. Chloe lives on her mobile phone. Blaise just wishes her father would get out of hospital.

But when Adam, the class loner and all-round oddball, snaps in class one afternoon and later tries to commit suicide, it sets off a chain-reaction of events that thrust The Class into a downward spiral of deception, greed, paranoia and murder. As each student discovers the inevitable allure of absolute power, The Class will find new heroes, new villains, and a future that only one of them can predict.

Based on the short story 'The Eighth Day', 'The Class' is a dark tale of modern morality, loyalty, deceit, heroism and the blurred line between Good and Evil.
