Expelled from his previous school following a failed suicide attempt, Ethan (Benson Jack Anthony) enrols at Seymour High, a struggling state school subsidised by a pharmaceutical company shamelessly showering the student body in serotonin boosters. Eager to fit in, he naturally gravitates towards the school’s resident emo contingent, comprising band-mates Bradley (Rahart Adams), Roz (Lucy Barrett) and Jay (Ben Bennett), and soon finds himself joining the ranks of Worst Day Ever. Simultaneously, however, Ethan finds himself drawn to Trinity, (Jordan Hare), the lead singer of rival Christian outfit Hope Group, which promises to spell the end of his newfound anonymity.

Worst Day Ever and Hope Group are Australia’s answer to Capulet and Montague, Barden Bellas and The Treblemakers,...
