Documentary worth seeing: "Mr. Bachmann and his class"

What influence does a teacher have on his class? And how can everyone learn from each other? Maria Speth's new documentary is about such questions. The director accompanied a class in Stadtallendorf in Hesse for a long time.

Awarded at the Berlinale

The film "Mr. Bachmann and his class" tells in about three and a half hours about human interaction, about German history and urgent questions of our coexistence. The focus is on the rather unconventional teacher Dieter Bachmann. The film won the Silver Bear "Jury Prize" at the Berlinale this year.
