On the most awaited date of the end of the year, the students and teachers of the prestigious Barton Academy boarding school are preparing to spend the holidays with their families and friends. However, a group known as The Rejected are left behind, with no places or people to visit. Paul Hunham (Paul Giamatti), a teacher much disliked by the faculty, always stays behind and against his wishes, is responsible for taking care of the students who have to stay in school during the holidays. During the assignment, he will have to deal in particular with Angus (Dominic Sessa), a rebellious teenager who is dealing with his father’s death in his own way. Between shouting, chases in the corridors, punishments and conversations, the two end up discovering more about life with the help of the school’s head chef.
