The Teachers’ Lounge (Parent & Baby)

Thursday 09 May 2024

Cinema

The Teachers’ Lounge focuses on Carla Nowak (Leonie Benesch) who is a dedicated, idealistic young teacher in her first job at a German middle school.

Her relaxed rapport with her seventh-grade students is put under stress when a series of thefts occur at the school, and a staff investigation leads to accusations and mistrust among outraged parents, opinionated colleagues, and angry students.

Caught in the middle of these complex dynamics, Carla tries to mediate—but the more she tries to do everything right, the more desperate her position becomes.

With The Teachers’ Lounge, award-winning director İlker Çatak (I Was, I Am, I Will Be) creates a riveting work about school as a microcosm of society.
