The School Duel

In a not too distant future, Florida Gov. Anthony Ramiro (Oscar Nunez) will have come up with an imaginative means of curbing school shootings-by letting prospective shooters release their impulses in a statewide, televised death tourney. Put-upon 13-year-old Sam (Kue Lawrence) signs up against the wishes of his mom (Christina Brucato), but his visions of payback and glory are going to meet a grim reality. Brutal social satire also stars Jamad Mays, Eugenie Bondurant, Michael Sean Tighe. 90 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English DTS HD 5.1 Master Audio; Subtitles: English (SDH), Spanish, French; bonus short "Six Stars" (2025); featurettes; theatrical trailers.
