Demagogic professor James Barker is prevented from delivering a lecture series which appears to deify Adolf Hitler. In response to the censorship he abandons his tenure-track position at a renowned university and founds the Barker Alternative Institute of Learning. Several years later, at the apex of its success as a cutting-edge online school, BAIL welcomes its first cohort of in-person attendees. BARKER follows three of these teenage students-Christopher, Alex and George-through their first weeks. Orientating themselves in their new environment, forging relationships with fellow students and singular professors, and grappling with BAIL's alternative curriculum are not the only challenges the trio face. James Barker's ideas and methods make BAIL the target of activism and force the students to choose where their loyalties lie and whom they will stand by.
