Synopsis

Virginie Thévenot, a somewhat special maths teacher, takes advantage of a general strike in a college to try an extraordinary experience with a small group of students. She takes a bet: let them do what they want... A spark that will ignite the spirits of teenagers, cause a small revolution within the college and turn their lives upside down.

Community Reviews

Viewers generally appreciate 'School Society' for its heartwarming and innovative approach to education, highlighting the positive impact of giving students freedom and responsibility. Sarah Suco's performance as Virginie is particularly praised, adding depth to this feel-good, albeit somewhat idealistic, narrative. While the film inspires with its portrayal of educational possibilities, some find it overly simplistic and lacking in realistic conflict, which might not sit well with those seeking a more nuanced depiction.

👍 Innovative educational approach

👎 May seem overly idealistic
