In a secondary school in the Bas-Rhin region, some fourth-grade students refuse to attend swimming pool class, citing religious reasons. Director Clarisse Feletin dives into the management of this crisis, which puts the teaching staff on a knife-edge, two years after the murder of Samuel Paty. The life of the school is turned upside down, as is that of the city's Turkish community, to which some of the students belong. At the same time, in Paris, at the Ministry of Education, the members of the Council of Wise Men in charge of secularism open their door to a camera for the first time as they try to provide answers to the teachers and their disoriented management. What support does the teaching team have to ensure that secularism is respected in their school?
