Ned is a ginger haired intellectual who likes indie music and hates sport. Everybody at his boarding school is obsessed with rugby and has a pastime of bullying outsiders. And on top of that, Ned's new roommate is the rugby star Connor, and his new English teacher (Andrew Scott) doesn't give him an A for copying lyrics into an essay. The story of three young men's coming-of-age is presented with ease, emphasized by an amazing soundtrack.
