St. Trinian's is the latest in a series of films based on the works of cartoonist Ronald Searle, which began in 1954 with The Belles of St. Trinian's and came to an end with a fifth film The Wildcats of St. Trinian's in 1980. Following a 27 year gap, this sixth film will update the franchise for the 2000s. St. Trinian's, the infamous school for 'young ladies', is once again facing dire financial crisis. The bank is threatening headmistress Camilla Fritton (Rupert Everett) with closure. Meanwhile her unorthodox doctrine of free expression and self empowerment is also under threat from new Education Minister Geoffrey Thwaites (Colin Firth). He may be an old flame of Camilla's, but right now he's determined to bring discipline and order to the anarchic school. But the St Trinian's girls are in a league of their own; smart, fearless and determined to defend the school they love to the end. They need to unite the warring girl gang cliques and come up with the cash fast. Sassy Head Girl Kelly (Gemma Arterton) and newcomer Annabelle (Talulah Riley) join forces and gather together a motley crew of teachers, the fiendishly charming Flash Harry (Russel Brand) and the resourceful and ruthless pupils to pull off the heist of the century. They're planning to steal the famous painting "Girl With A Pearl Earring" from the National Gallery, right under the noses of the authorities. But can their combined cunning, girlish wiles and total lack of shame win the day before the authorities close them down for good? All of the hilarious antics and the girl-power action, which have made St Trinian's one of our greatest and best-loved national institutions, are back on the big screen. Co-stars Lena Headey and Stephen Fry. Mischa Barton makes a cameo appearance.
