Trailer

Why watch this film?

From the Oscar-nominated Jan Hrebejk, this Slovak drama is reminiscent of Sidney Lumet's classic '12 Angry Men', during intense scenes where parents debate what to do with the corrupt teacher at the school their children attend. A fascinating and intriguing story, inspired by real events, and meticulous in its visual recreation of 1980s Czechoslovakia.
