Synopsis by Perry Seibert
Glee's Chris Colfer wrote and stars in this coming of age high-school black comedy. He plays a senior who wants nothing more than to go to Northwestern in order to escape from the stifling small town in which he's grown up. To get there, he ends up blackmailing a number of his fellow classmates in order to start a literary journal that he believes will impress the admissions board.
