In this film adaptation of the Julian Mitchell play, classmates and fellow outcasts Guy Bennett and Tommy Judd find comfort in friendship during the 1930s, at an elite British public school where conformity is the norm. Openly gay Bennett must deal with bullying and homophobia, while Judd struggles to reconcile the expectations of the establishment with his own Marxist beliefs when he is given the opportunity to become head boy.
