synopsis
POINTS OF INTEREST
- The film caused (especially in France) a controversy among fans and detractors.
Awarded in Berlin and some teachers unions, other festivals honors her away from (but not public) and the government showed its discomfort (Jospin, prime minister in the release date had been Education Minister Mitterand). - School, some teachers and, of course, children are real. The writer, Dominique Sampiero
is a school teacher. The report contains anecdotes from her experience and seeks to portray archetypes
and constant education: the position of the government policies (the Communist mayor) and educational (the inspector), the bureaucracy of public services (excuses responsible for assisting ) and the connection between school and society issues. - analysis highlights the different positions being taken by educators to the problems, the inspector, the director defends yield curves, the veteran teacher, the novice and, especially, committed director Daniel Lefebvre.
- Daniel, despite his experience as a teacher (and his excellent skill with the children) can not handle the relationship with the son of his partner and also costs related to some parents. But we always shown its ability to act his energy contagious.
- The film hits us with the contrast between the tender eyes of children and the brutality of
environment dominated by unemployment, alcoholism, cold and poverty. - why the film goes beyond a look at the school, is a dissection of some part of reality often forgotten by the media. It is a complaint and at the same time, a celebration of solidarity, social courage and imagination.
After the overview, we can only see it and enjoy it. We will enclose a short about the film in question as a summary in the original (French)
