The comedy tells the story of the rivalry between class nerd Alfonso, played by Michael M. Peña, and Marty Baboor, a newly arrived "super-nerd" student from India played by Nathaniel A. Peña.
This short film, which was shot in High Definition Video, was produced under a SAG New Media Contract with a budget of less than 10,000 dollars.
The rivalry continues in gym class with a brutal game of dodge ball and finally ends up in an epic after-school battle.
Romantic interest is provided by the militant Russian nerd Ivanka, played by Danika Yarosh,[2] and Doris, played by Lia Marie Johnson, who firmly believes she is a witch with magic powers.
[3] Willie Peña wrote the film after watching his two sons, who play the leads, pretend to be nerds engaged in a fistfight while on a photo shoot.
