A Palestinian school teacher struggles to balance his political stance, supporting one of his students, and the chance of love with a volunteer worker, from Farah Nabulsi.

A Palestinian school teacher (Saleh Bakri) struggles to reconcile his risky commitment to political resistance with his emotional support for one of his students (Muhammad Abed El Rahman) and the chance of a new relationship with a volunteer worker (Imogen Poots).

Praised by critics, The Hollywood Reporter wrote, ‘Bakri’s performance is unpredictable from moment to moment…newcomer El Rahman brings youthful fervor to every aspect of Adam, and the transformation he embodies… is extraordinary. The Teacher deftly avoids neat, self-satisfied lessons’.

After the screening we are delighted to be joined for a ScreenTalk by BAFTA awarded director Farah Nabulsi and actor Saleh Bakri. Hosted by Gali Gold.
