About this movie

Budding author, Nicholas Cutler, has been waiting 44 years for his life to start. Well, the version of the life he's forever played out in his mind, not the insipid one fate has dished him. A self-professed, "undiscovered literary genius", Cutler has been wanting so long for the dream to become a reality that's his strength of mind is starting to crack. Not even the serial womanising and long boozy nights, can suppress the discouraged high school English teacher's artistic suffering anymore. However, just when it looks like he may have to accept a life of unfilled ambitions and failure, it seems Cutler's ship might just have come in when his new book "World War Z" attracts the interest of a respected publishing house. He simply has to be on his best behaviour for a week so as to not mess it up, which happens to coincide with the school's annual book week festivities.
