NSI Features First-developed Adventures in Public School (previously known as Public Schooled), from writer/director Kyle Rideout and writer/producer Josh Epstein, has released a new trailer.

Adventures in Public School, developed through NSI Features First in 2014, tells the story of socially awkward Liam, who has been homeschooled his entire life. When he falls in love with a popular one-legged girl, he abandons his mother’s suffocating love and enrolls in public school, getting a crash course in sex, drugs and social mayhem.

Catch the film on January 26 at Metro Cinema in Edmonton, February 10 at Cinematheque in Winnipeg, Fernie Film Festival in British Columbia on January 26 and the Available Light Film Fest in Whitehorse, Yukon on February 4.
