The New Kid (2015) Synopsis

Moved from Le Havre, Benoit is the new kid in a Paris school, finding it hard to make friends, as most are terrorized to avoid him by Charles' bully gang, except two fellow outcasts: clumsy Joshua and overconfident nerd Constantin, who even runs against Charles for class representative. Swedish exchange student Johanna offers them friendship, and a shot at some popularity, but also envy, while popularity queen Astride's gang turns on her. Benoit's cool DJ brother Nino tries to cool-coach the kids, but the dance party at their home is largely boycotted and rendering Johanna jealous seems to backfire, even the outcast mates risk falling out.—KGF Vissers
