School Society
Virginie is the new middle school mathematics teacher. When all her colleagues decide to go on a strike, she offers to stay and take care of the kids. Virginie’s method is bold, simple yet innovative: to grant the students absolute freedom to do only… whatever they want! Obviously, this experiment has a shy start with some few twists. But, as the teenagers take over the school, some will find a true vocation, learn a few unexpected lessons… and make it truly theirs.
Reviews
An invigorating plea for a school able to accompany individual choices and developments, carried by the interpretation of Sarah Suco, whose spontaneity echoes the interpretations of these teenagers in search of themselves.

The director of “Tamara” confirms here that he knows how to capture and restore the youthful life force.

School Society is teeming with joyous situations, which could nourish reflections on the redesign of teaching, such as the sequence in which the theory of games is explained, the relative importance of the notation, the fundamental importance of the confidence in oneself or the notion of flow favourable to the learning and the well-being of each one- Anne-Claire Cieutat.
Anne-Claire Cieutat — Bande à part
Often funny and wonderfully interpreted (special mention to Sarah Suco), the author’s film “La Colle” is just about right.
