A teacher uses new methods to captivate his audience. Some kids take it too far, some colleagues are worried traditional ways are going to be lost... but eventually, everything turns out OK.
Acting
Anglade's unhinged charisma carries the entire premise.
Production
Gloriously dated 2000s French aesthetic, somehow intentional.
Director
Alexandre Jardin
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Based on Jardin's own novel; he reportedly based Anglade's character on a real professor who got fired for similar theatrics.
Released during France's peak 'comédie populaire' era, when every actor seemed contractually obligated to wear a turtleneck.
