The Teacher

Streaming video - 2016

Directed by Jan Hřebejk (Director of the **Oscar**-nominated *Divided We Fall*) and loosely inspired by true events, the film is a very dark comedy about an elementary school teacher who uses her students to manipulate their parents for her own gain. Winner of the Best Actress Award (Zuzana Mauréry) at the **Karlovy Vary International Film Festival.** Official Selection at the **Chicago International Film Festival.** *"An intelligent and universally resonant crowd-pleaser..." - Alissa Simon, **Variety*** *"Hrebejk and Jarchovsy deftly employ humour... while preventing their overall point about power and corruption from becoming preachy." - Amber Wilkinson, **Eye for Film***
