Based on a 1995 scandal in a Chicago high school, this is the incredible story of a bunch of students who made national headlines by cheating with the help and guidance of their dedicated teacher. Dr. Gerald Plecki recruited seven of his best Steinmetz High students to compete in a renowned academic competition that would ensure college future for the otherwise underprivileged team. For nine years, rival school, Whitney Young High School, had won the competition, thanks to better resources and immense school support. Knowing the students to be talented but disadvantaged, Plecki decided to level the playing field and, when the opportunity arose for his team to cheat their way to success, he supported them all the way to the top.
