"Amplify"

Ralph, a queer student leader, becomes the center of controversy when a non-consensual recording of his intimate encounter on school premises, made by a teacher named Sir Andrew, erupts. His adviser, Sir Robert, consoles him, reminding Ralph of the institutions' inherent discrimination to people like them. Despite being barred from joining the speech choir due to the scandal, Ralph decides to join, leading to a confrontation with his classmate Christian and his suspension. Returning secretly to school the next day, Ralph discovers Sir Andrew's abusive behavior-including that with his friend named Patty-and a plot against Sir Robert-to which is all not being addressed by the principal, Dr. Santos. With the help of his class, Section Scarlet, Ralph plans to expose these abuses. And during a speech choir performance, tension mounts as Ralph faces off with Sir Andrew. Then, a sudden revelation disrupts the space, leading to Ralph's triumphant smile as the performance continues with renewed purpose and solidarity against oppression.
