In a near-future Florida where gun control has been abolished, the state’s ambitious governor (Oscar Nuñez, The Office) introduces a chilling solution to school shootings: a state-wide, televised fight-to-the-death competition known as ‘The School Duel.’ Sammy, a troubled 13-year-old, secretly enlists against his mother’s wishes – seduced by promises of purpose, patriotism, and notoriety. But as the deadly spectacle unfolds, that dream begins to crumble. The debut feature from director Todd Wiseman Jr., The School Duel is a provocative dystopian thriller about fear, manipulation, and one of the most brazenly political genre films in recent memory.
