Arnold is a bright and multi-talented high school student. As a “model student”, he represents his school in academic contests, which attracts the attention of Bee, a fellow student who runs a lucrative underground business that helps students cheat on their entrance exams to earn a spot at a prestigious military school. Meanwhile, the growing discontent at school erupts into a full-blown protest…

Inspired by the 2020 Bad Student Movement’s Manifesto For Survival At School, Arnold Is A Model Student exposes the tragedy and absurdity of the broken education system in Thailand, while shedding light on the resilience of today’s Thai youths and their shared desire for a better future
