Over the course of a school year at the prestigous college Kingston, two students cause problems, a low income first generation student challenges the status quo and a professor and a legacy student look for ways to improve learning. Or something
This is a just okay film that seems to have been picked because every year Tribeca has a college set film.
The problem with the film is that the filmmakers are trying to do too many things, with too many characters and an uncertain handle on the tone. Its not so much the mix of genres as the tone is very mannered, as if we are being lectured by some one who wants us to know that we are being told an important story that doesn't have characters who speak like real people. Everyone seems to be people that only exist in films like this.
I never cared.
