About Checks and Balance
A group of forgotten seniors at a private high school create a mafia-esque scheme of stealing test answers and selling them for money. When one student attempts to get the better of them, the student mob has to figure out how seriously to take their newfound power.
Directed by Brian Smail III, Checks and Balance leans on a strong ensemble — Brian Smail III, Rynier Gaffney, Tuni Hernandez — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about crime titles of 2020.
