9/10
One of the most beautiful documentaries i have ever seen
5 January 2004
This "documentary" starts very slow and some may begin to lose interest in it.. I plead with you not too. If you make it thru the first 10 minutes then your lives will undoubtedly be improved. The film is set in a very very rural French school. One teacher teaches all pupils from their first school day up to when they are ready ( which seems to be a matter for debate ) to go to middle school. It becomes evident as the film progresses that the teacher needs the pupils as much as they need him. the school and pupils are his life, which in itself is not disimilar from their own.

I would have given it 10/10 but it ends all too soon... I now need to find out what happens to the teacher and pupils after the film ends. It is a film that has changed my life.. and it is not often that one can say that
