Amal, a teacher in Brussels, encourages students’ passion for reading and freedom of expression despite the risks. His bold approach leaves a mark on students and families. I saw the film in Cluj at the Transylvania International Film Festival 2024 – TIFF Romania – and I was so impressed by the film that I can only recommend it to everyone. Not an easy film, but a difficult film that gives ideas about home. What did we do wrong? So, she is a truly idealistic literature teacher in a suburban Brussels school. She seems to be in trouble and becomes the target of a group of hostile and tough students, as well as some teachers who are involved in Islamic extremism. During the hostilities, the enthusiastic teacher decides to help a Muslim teenager who has been accused of homosexuality by her colleagues. Unfortunately, things take an increasingly strange and dangerous direction in an unjust war.
