Olio Road Productions, the film club at Hamilton Southeastern High School, has developed a reputation for producing ambitious student-made feature films each school year.

Last year’s production, 11:17, earned widespread recognition, including becoming the first student-produced film selected for screening at the prestigious Heartland Film Festival in Indianapolis.

As the 2025-2026 school year comes to a close, Olio Road Productions is preparing to premiere its latest feature film, Behind the 8 Ball.

The film tells the story of a financially struggling high school senior who wagers her future on a pool tournament, only to discover the real challenge is deciding what kind of life she wants to lead.

Screenings of Behind the 8 Ball will take place this week at the Charles D. Leonard Auditorium at Hamilton Southeastern High School. Showtimes are scheduled for Tuesday, May 12, at 3:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., along with an additional screening on Friday, May 15, at 7:30 p.m.

Tickets are $10, with proceeds helping offset expenses for this year’s production and supporting next year’s student film project.  Buy your tickets now using this link.
