A very conservative boys' school in 1917, a young teacher, keen to share his love of theatre with a disinterested and suspicious staff body, mounts an ambitious production of Dr Faustus.
The production takes a turn for the avant garde in the hands of one of the scholarship boys, who has a unique perspective on the play and some dangerous secrets to expose.
