COMMUNITY RATING




Based on a notorious uprising at a reform school for boys in 1915 that required military intervention, this island-bound epic is a thrilling study in adolescent rebellion and the rigors of regimentation. At the prison-like institution of Bastoy, the boys endure the rough-handed abuse of the school’s staff, who run the risk of pushing their charges over the edge. When a new inmate leads the boys to a violent uprising against a brutal regime, their strength and perseverance will be put to the test, and they will have to ask themselves how far they will go to attain freedom.
