Overview:National Star prepares all its students for a more independent life after college. The final episode of this ground-breaking series follows three of the most independent students into the outside world, on the hunt for the one thing they most want in life: Lewis wants a new voice, Morgan wants a job and Sasha wants a home.
We meet the charismatic Lewis among a room of students watching the World Cup, and much like the others, he is yelling at the TV screen, but does so with an electronic voice through his communicator. Lewis, who hails from Newcastle, is fed up with his voice and embarks on a personal mission to find a Geordie accent for his communication device, with the help of his friend Rob.
Meanwhile, Morgan has been overcoming his speech impediment and won’t let it hold him back in his search for gainful employment. For Sasha, the one thing she doesn’t want to do after college is return home to live with mum and dad, as we follow her struggle to move into suitable housing.
In the last of these searingly honest films, we witness the hope, resilience and humour of a stand-out cast of young people and their families, overcoming the odds and the high-stakes drama of life on the outside.
