Grindle

GRINDLE

"Go to school, learn hard, get your degree, and life will treat you well". This is the golden advice that every person is hearing daily, to do, to adequately secure a great job, participate in society and gain an upper hand in the job market, and meet all financial obligations; including the vain and lofty ones. Billions of people, no matter their background, follow this simple counsel with religious commitment. So does our four young, idealistic and hopeful friends who do everything they can, including getting loans, to attend the university. The friends bond over their shared aims to be successful and end up becoming fantastic friends. Reality hits when they get their degrees and leave their university bubble, and experience the harsh reality of life. Broke, in debt and living on the poverty line, they each put their heads and skills together to create the most ingenious and money-making business venture - Grindle. But the boys have a big handicap; none of them has any experience handling the business. Before they can agree on a solution to their problem, they get their first business. The friends failed their first contract. "What happened yesterday?" "We are not killers! That is what happened." But fate had other plans, and allowed a freak accident to lead them further and deeper into the world seemingly unknown to them. It will expose their inner workings and bring the friendship to a catastrophic crash.
