Leonie Benesch excels as Carla Novak, a young, idealistic secondary school teacher struggling to reconcile her ideals with the heavy handed approach of her school's management as they investigate a spate of petty thefts. The consequences of Novak’s well-intentioned actions spiral out of control as relationships between staff, pupils and their parents sour.
Director İlker Çatak drew on experiences from his own school days to create ‘a gripping thriller, a fine exercise in restrained but mounting tension’ (Jessica Kiang, Variety).
