All That Glitters

Two young people sat on a bench at an idyllic-looking train station

Synopsis

A heartfelt coming-of-age comedy romance about Ryan, a teenage boy struggling to find his place at school and at home with his father, who also happens to be his English teacher.
After a heated argument, Ryan conjures the ghost of William Shakespeare and gets a chance to step into the spotlight, win the girl he admires, and finally be seen.
What begins as a playful, fish-out-of-water adventure becomes a poignant story about love, loss, and the universal desire to belong.
