When the ever-optimistic boy Monty causes the school’s computer to crash during a test, he is immediately put in a special-needs class and deemed unlikely to ever succeed. Monty decides to start his own school, a school which accommodates kids with strange brains! Meanwhile, Monty’s best friend Sofia is enrolled in the militant and elitist Killer Instinct School System. Monty and Sofia go separate ways, and soon their friendship is hanging by a thread. When the “Education Olympics” are announced, the conflict between Monty and Sofia escalates, but the two former friends are soon forced to try to work together…

Why we like it: With a genuinely anarchic humor and a truly unstoppable protagonist, the film vindicates children who are misunderstood by their surroundings for their uniqueness and refusal to blindly follow the crowd. The Montys of the world need encouragement and a closer look at what makes them unique.
