Student council president Kevin Roderick has always believed in the American way. But as the college bound teenager desperately searches for financial assistance, he finds hard work and good values don't always pay off. So when Kevin aquires access to six hundred plus council fund dollars, he seizes the opportunity, and invests. Having hit the big time, Kevin finds himself blackmailed by an unknown assailant, with unknown motives. Kevin soon finds himself falling to Nixon-esque tactics to maintain his secrets. United We Fall part I is a pitch black satire about the rise and fall of the world’s most corrupt student council.

"Very entertaining! I loved all the little twists and turns. I got interested, and didn't want to stop until I saw how it ended. It seems to me that it is exactly the kind of film that would make people think (also a rare thing) yet let them have fun watching it, too."
Review from The NORTHLANDER

---

Once United's first layers are peeled off and the intricate plot gets rolling, you may find yourself surprised: this is no cheesy High School comedy. This is no slasher on the prowl movie, nor an 80s John Cusack comedy. The dark comedy is filled with wicked humor and biting satire in all the right places, and memorable characters, some you actually care for. And most importatly, even the charatcters you don't care for are always fun and interesting. Dave Campfield seems to remember his High School days clearly, capturing a student's world perfectly. The most surprising thing of all is that the purpose is to make you think. And have some fun while you do it.
