The story tracks a handful of aspiring twits who've enrolled at UNY, a film school that's almost as clueless as its students. Teachers advise that sets should be meat/dairy free, and that students must consider the camera's "attitude." Students get storycrafting tips from a suspiciously familiar book called "The Hero's Jaunt," which says that characters pass through stages like "Boat to the Hinterland" and "Cuddling of the Prize." One kid's script consists mainly of "something blows up." An aloof student is asked why he enrolled in the school if he wasn't going to attempt to learn anything, and shrugs, "I needed a crew." Rather than admitting that his lessons are "vague," a teacher insists that they "have elasticity." Oh dear God it's ALL TRUE. Barely an exaggeration, directly pinpoints the fumbling disappointment that is film school.
