Brain Drain

Comedy100 min

After forging their résumés to get into Oxford, five friends head to England with one goal: help one of their own get closer to the girl he loves. Guglielmo Scilla is part of the student impostor crew, with Frank Matano and Luca Peracino among the friends caught up in the plan as they try to pass themselves off inside an elite university. The setup turns on fake credentials, group loyalty, and a romantic mission that keeps dragging everyone into the same increasingly messy scheme.
