Synopsis
Travel back to the ‘90s and meet the students of Middletown High, led by their eccentric teacher Fred Isseks. Armed with nothing but curiosity, teenage rebellion, and their school’s AV gear, they unraveled a jaw-dropping environmental scandal involving toxic waste threatening their entire community. Three decades on, the award-winning filmmaking duo Amanda McBaine and Jesse Moss (BOYS STATE and GIRLS STATE) connect with the former teen activists to explore how their bold stand shaped their lives and why their revelations remain as relevant as ever. MIDDLETOWN is where “ERIN BROCKOVICH meets THE BREAKFAST CLUB” ( Collider ) — a powerful story about a time when growing up means stepping up.
