Honours In Attendance

Synopsis

Set within London's neighbourhoods, Honours In Attendance shines a light on the unconventional lives of two live-at-home students, Sean & Raymond. Whilst Raymond happily shuns campus life, Sean haplessly tries to integrate. Following their first lecture, the two students invoke a friendship that transcends a mutual disdain for their tutors and peers. Their camaraderie offers solace in an environment charged by isolation, apathy, identity crises and looming deadlines.
