Someone described this as Farhadi meets Safdie brothers and that hits the nail on the head.
Watch a seemingly small dilemma spin out of control. Although there are naturally many situations specific to teaching, school and education, a lot of the conflicts could arise at other workplaces and social crossings. The lead is perfect for her role! Weird ending, make of it what you will.
Remember that this film beat the Academy darling All Quiet on the Western Front at the German national film prize, and I'm not even mad :) 4 months 2 weeks ago -

Responding to Torgo's comment: I was also thinking of Farhadi while watching, and I kind of wish he had been the director. He would've approached the film in more subtle ways. I liked it, but there were missteps along the way that frustrated me.
I've loved Leonie Benesch in everything I've seen her in, and this is no exception. 3 months ago
