Often when you go to the movies, you know where a film is going to go, the baddies will be vanquished, the guy will get the world, all the problems will be solved; if that is what you like then this is not the film for you.This is not Glee and there are no explosions mock heroics or CGI special effects, its is very very real.
Its starting point is a character who is detached and lives a peripatetic life in an almost clutter free apartment. The film explores the character and his motivations and those of the other school teachers at a failing school.I found the film engrossing as the realistic messy lifestyles it documented developed depth through the 97 minutes. Statements were made, bubbles burst and hidden secrets revealed. It is gripping too, how will it end, will the lives and problems all be sorted? No signposts just a gripping story.
You will enjoy this movie, it stays with you as you leave the theatre and it makes you ask questions - how did things get this bad.
