WHAT IS “GRADUATION HEIST” ABOUT?

Kapsel is a party animal in his final year of high school, for whom his close-knit group of friends matters far more than the school-leaving exam. When it dawns on him that finishing high school also means the break-up of his crew, he decides to derail everyone’s university plans and give them one more year of carefree life together. To save his friends from the hardships of stepping into adulthood, he intends to hack into the Ministry of Education’s innovative system and change the exam results. For this daring operation he enlists a group of high-schoolers with the slimmest chances of passing the exam and… his long-unseen grandfather, full of controversial life wisdom. Will Kapsel’s brilliant plan succeed? Will the boy manage to change the course of events and keep his friends by his side?
