The Teacher’s Lounge – Official Trailer (2023)
ByJames
When Carla Nowak, a dedicated sports and math teacher, starts her first job at a high school, she stands out for her idealism. When a series of thefts occur at the school and one of her students is suspected, she decides to investigate the matter on her own. Carla tries to mediate between outraged parents, opinionated colleagues, and aggressive students but is relentlessly confronted with the rigid structures of the school system. The more desperately she tries to do everything right, the more the young teacher threatens to break. This gripping drama about conformity, racism, and rebellion – Germany’s entry into the Oscars – is an incisive look at the rapidly shifting power dynamics and complex search for truth in contemporary society.
