A lighthearted screwball comedy that reimagines a classic tale as a fish-out-of-water story about acceptance and friendship on a college campus.

In this version of "The Hunchback of Notre Dame", a hunchback is found living in the bell tower of UCLA. He discovers life as two students bring him out of the tower and into society.
