The Emperor's Club

In everyone's life there's that one person who makes all the difference.

A reflective drama about a principled teacher whose mentorship of a troubled student becomes a lifelong moral reckoning, exploring ethics, influence, and the limits of redemption.

William Hundert is a passionate and principled Classics professor who finds his tightly-controlled world shaken and inexorably altered when a new student, Sedgewick Bell, walks into his classroom. What begins as a fierce battle of wills gives way to a close student-teacher relationship, but results in a life lesson for Hundert that will still haunt him a quarter of a century later.
