Ghost Graduation

In the sleepy town of Monforte, a once‑respectable high school has become an oddball crossroads where the ordinary and the otherworldly collide. The corridors echo with the murmurs of students who never quite left, and the atmosphere hums with a mixture of teenage angst and lingering after‑life. The film’s tone balances quirky comedy with a gentle melancholy, inviting viewers to wonder what it truly means to finish a chapter when the pages are still turning.

Modesto arrives on the scene as a weary educator whose unique gift—seeing and hearing the dead—has cost him a string of firings and a lifetime of bewildered therapy sessions. Though his sensitivity has left him marginalized, it also makes him the only person capable of recognizing the spectral presence haunting the school’s halls. The principal, Tina, sees this as a chance to restore order, hiring him despite the whispered rumors that follow the new teacher wherever he goes.

Inside the classroom he discovers five translucent pupils, each embodying a fragment of the past and a lingering desire for closure. Their playful, sometimes mischievous interactions reveal that they are not merely haunting the school but are caught in a liminal state, yearning for a final rite that feels both mundane and monumental. The dynamic between the living teacher and his ethereal charges is poised between mentorship and mystery, hinting at the possibility that education might transcend the boundaries of life itself.

As the story unfolds, the audience is drawn into a world where everyday school rituals—exams, friendships, and the longing for recognition—take on an uncanny resonance. The film blends the familiar anxieties of adolescence with the uncanny charm of a ghostly after‑school special, promising a heartfelt exploration of unfinished business, the power of community, and the strange, hopeful notion that even the most lingering spirits can find a way to graduate.
