High School Revolution
He's a leader, He's a lover, He's… Delusional!
Like most high schoolers, Leon Bronstein is having an identity crisis. What differentiates Leon, however, is that he believes he is the reincarnation of Soviet thinker Leon Trotksy, predestined to follow the same path as his namesake. When sentenced to public school as punishment for staging a hunger strike in his father’s factory, Leon just sees it as another step toward the fulfillment of his destiny.
Critic Reviews:
- " Fitfully charming and sitcom cute. " – Stephen Cole
- " Baruchal gives a charming performance, full of intellectual wit and good-natured charisma, but also take-charge sex appeal, albeit of the nerd variety. " – Dan Jardine
- " The Trotsky is an endearing comedy that at times flirts with greatness, and those times are courtesy of Jay Baruchel's performance. " – Liz Braun
