What course of action is open to Tony other than to inspire a juvenile revolt? With thrust, justice and his comrade pupils marching by his side, what can possibly stop him...?


Buy the DVD Boxset
Death Of The Revolution is a vivid and delightful political fantasy anchored by a brilliant central performance from first-time actor Alastair Marshall. Ten at the time of shooting, this precocious and difficult role was the first part Alastair had ever taken on. Spotted by directors Ben and Chris Blaine at the school where they were to shoot the film, Alastair was given the role because of a natural affinity with the part that soon became clear in auditions. However, no one quite expected him to take to the filming process with such ease and professionalism.
