by Emmanuelle Mattana

Boys Being Boys.

It is the biggest night of Melbourne’s academic calendar, the Grand Finale of the Year 12 Interschool Debating Tournament. The boys from the elite St Imperium College are locked in a classroom for their short debate prep , arguing ‘that feminism has failed women’. But what begins as a riotously funny satire on insecure adolescent masculinity and the ego of Australia’s next generation of politicians quickly turns sour when news breaks that one of the boys has been anonymously accused of sexual assault.
