THE GET RICH QUICK SCHEME - Indie Comedy Debuts to Streaming - Beginning June 11.

Random Media Presents A Story of Friendship, a High School Principal and a Simple Bet!

LOS ANGELES, CA, USA, June 11, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Indie film leader Random Media and Electric Shock Productions, proudly announce the streaming debut of an inspiring comedy tale of friendship, high school… and getting rich - THE GET RICH QUICK SCHEME, debuting to major transactional VOD platforms, beginning June 11. The second feature of award-winning high school director Samuel L. Pierce, it’s the hilariously off-beat story of three high school students struggling with grades, goals, and focus - who take the threat of school detention into their own hands when their high school principal makes the boys a bet …that they can’t build a successful business in 90 days. If they win, they graduate without doing any work; if they lose, they get detention for the rest of their school lives. As they work to raise money towards meeting their million-dollar goal, they hilariously discover real skills, how friendships can change or be destroyed by the idea and potential of success, and how greed influences choices. Can the three high school friends scale their new business to meet their goal, and will their friendships survive the pressure, or will the principal’s plan to sabotage them succeed?

THE GET RICH QUICK SCHEME blends comedy, drama, and madcap ideas in the vein of popular 80s-style comedies. It stars real-life high school friends Samuel L. Pierce, Tyler Griswold, Rex Nelson and more, with Doran Danielson portraying protagonist, principal Wright. Loosely based on real life, the film was filmed at Tacoma (WA) Stadium High school, the same location as the classic 1999 rom-com 10 Things I Hate About You.
