Synopsis |
Zebby and Amr create an online newspaper where students can share anything about their school as long as it is original and true. They want the website to be a platform for every student’s voice and a way to spread information that the school newspaper would never approve. However, the site quickly becomes something they had not expected, and they find it hard to discern between free speech and bullying. |
