"Darling, let us go and see if the rose
Which this morning had unfolded

"Its purple dress to the Sun,
Has lost this evening

"The folds of its purple dress,
And its complexion like yours.

"Alas! See how in a small space,
Darling, she left its beauties thereon

"Alas! Alas! Its beauties the dryer!”

No, "Its beauties allowed to fall".
Not "the dryer"!

- I messed up.
- That's OK. Come on, continue.

"O truly Stepmother Nature

"Since such a flower lasts
From morning till evening!

- "Until" evening.
- Until evening.

"So, if you believe me, darling,
While your age blooms

"In its greenest novelty,
Harvest, harvest your youth:

"As with this flower, old age
Will tarnish your beauty."

- By?
- By Pierre Ronsard.

Pierre de Ronsard. Well done, Modibo.

- Weird, brother.
- Thank you, Modibo.

Very good, thank you. So, Roxana?

What can you tell us about this poem?

It's a girl since he says "darling".

Wait, who says what to whom?

- Well, the poet, to the girl.
- Yeah.

Look at the top, there is a dedication.

- Look at the top of the poem.
- Ah, "To Cassandra"!

"To Cassandra". So?

So, Ronsard speaks to a girl named Cassandra.

- That's it.
- Sir? Ronsard is really a fuckboy, isn't he?

Yes. So, wait... Clarify your thought.

Well...

He wrote it to hit on her, right?

That's exactly it, he's hitting on her.

- Another word for "hitting on"?
- Make advances.

- Make a pass.
- Make advances, make a pass...

- Seduce.
- Do we have other... Seduce!

“Seduce” is interesting.

“Seduce” comes from the Latin

"aducere", which means, initially,

to bring...

to oneself.

This means that,
when you seduce someone,

we bring it to ourselves.
How does he do it?

What exactly is he talking to her about?

- Of her beauty!
- Of her beauty.

Well done, Océane.
I'm pleased to see that you're paying attention.

Sure, it's about sex, so she pays attention.

- Well, now, Modibo.
- That's sick!

We don't talk like that.
Apologize.

I want to apologize.

Thank you.

- What does he compare her to?
- To a rose.

To a rose. Can you quote the poem?

"And its complexion like yours."

In other words she has a complexion like a rose,
the same color.

Actually, I got it.

- The garden is for screwing.
- Oh, yeah!

And the rose, it’s the clit, do you feel me?

- No, no, no.
- Don't you say anything about it?

That's not normal, is it?

That pervert just talks about pussy.

But he's never seen one, virgin!

That’s enough, Océane.

Calm down.
Modibo!

It's good to participate, but you cannot...
be careful with your vocabulary.

Okay? And then, you raise your hand.
Come on, let's refocus.

- So...
- When it's him, he says nothing.

We talked about seduction
which involves flattery.

But we can also use a
more subtle way, called...

asteism.
- Is it when we don't believe in God?

- That's atheism.
- Same sound, but not the same.

Asteism,

it's praising someone while
pretending to criticize them.

- I don't follow that, sir.
- It's subtle, huh?

For example,

if I find Leslie very beautiful
with this new hairstyle.

Calm down. So, if I tell her...

If I tell her,

“Leslie, don’t you think you’re exaggerating
with so much beauty today?”

What am I doing here?

Calm down!

What am I doing?

It's called flirting.

No, I compliment her while
pretending to blame her.

Sir, do you want to "bring her to you"?

No, I wanted to explain...

But that's flirting, that's flirting!

Teach wants to hit on Leslie!
Teach wants to hit on Leslie!

That's enough!

Bring back the poems tomorrow.
The handouts, there.

- Good morning.
- Good morning.

There you go.

That's it. Again.

It's better.

Like that.

But my hand hurts.

- Your hand hurts?
- Mmm.

- You need to strengthen this hand.
- How?

Do you want a technique? Do like this.

Imagine there is a big ball of cotton.

And hop! you take away little tufts,

between your thumb, index
finger and middle finger.

That's it. And you can do that...

in the morning in transit,
or in your free time.

Go ahead. Finish the line.

Can you come see me?

- A problem?
- No, but stop by.

- Okay?
- Okay.

That's it.

I wanted to talk to you about this.

Leslie from 4th C brought it to me.

She was with Océane and Sihem.
- With Océane and Sihem?

I'm fed up with those two.

Despite my words in their notebook,
I never got one single appointment.

Harassment?

What? Am I harassing Leslie?

What do you want to do?

I'd have to talk to her, to understand
what's going on in her mind.

- Can we call her?
- Yes, but are you sure?

Yes, if there is a misunderstanding,
we need to talk about it.

Okay.

Hold on.
Thanks.

- Hello?
- Yes, Omar, can you bring me Leslie Reynaud, please?

I think she's in 108.

- I'll go right away.
- Okay, thanks.

Your teacher read the letter.

Do you really think he...

That he's making advances towards you?

Why did you write that?

There's a reason, right?

Do you want me to...

to leave, so you can talk to Ms. Slimani alone?

Listen, Leslie...

What is written in this letter is serious.

Your accusations will be taken seriously.

Do you understand?

It was Océane and Sihem who...

No!

Do you want me to call your parents, Leslie?

If you mean what you wrote,
we will be obliged.

Do you understand?

Okay. I can see your notebook, please?

Thanks.

Thanks.

Hello?

Good morning, sir.
Mrs Slimani, Paul Éluard College.

Could I talk to Mr. Reynaud, please?

Good morning, ma'am.

Could your father come to the college, now?

My father died. I take care of my family.

- Can you come by now?
- What's happening?

I prefer to talk about it in person.

I have to go to work. I can come
at the end of the day, if it's urgent.

Now would be better, sir.

What's going on? Why don't you tell me?

Did Kylian do something stupid?

There is a problem
between Leslie and a teacher.

What's the matter with the professor?

Leslie feels like her teacher is...

is interested in her.
- Interested?

What do you mean "interested"?

- That he tries to seduce her.
- Is she there? Is she listening to me?

Yes, her teacher too,
and you are on speakerphone.

Hello, sir.

We are trying to clarify his statements.

Leslie, are you there?

Hey, Leslie, are you there?

Answer him, Leslie.

- Yes.
- What's going on there?

Leslie?

- Are you deaf? What's going on?
- It's the teacher...

The teacher what, Leslie?

Leslie?

You can at least tell me if you're okay.

I'm coming right away.

So, we...

But, when you say that your teacher
touches his belt,

he can, as you write in your letter,

make an innuendo or simply readjust his belt,
you see?

But at the kebab, he drank water,
and he said it was cold.

But I was talking about the water, that's all.

And it was cold. It came out of the fridge.

He said it while looking into my eyes.

Also, what is he doing at
the kebab with my sister?

It was an outing with other students,

to reward them. I had...
Your mother agreed.

My mother understands nothing.

And my sister doesn't need rewards.

She's a good student.

What else did he do to you?

Well...

- Come on, talk.
- He has...

- He always asks me questions. He...
- Speak!

He asked me if I read
books in the evening, and...

He said that the greatest pleasure in the world
it's reading in the warmth of...

of your bed.

I have...

I said that to everybody,
to the whole class.

Leslie?

If you lie, Leslie,

I'll kill you.

- If your teacher lies, I'll kill him too.
- Hold on.

I'll kill him too,
I don't care about going to jail.

Excuse me! Sir!
I don't accept your threats.

I understand you are angry,
but it doesn't work like this.

Besides, I didn't do anything wrong.

Leslie, go back to class, please.

We'll continue our discussion, gentlemen.

We have to calm down.

- No, eh!
- Even I didn't do that!

- And you do that?
- Let her go!

What is that "okay"? Who is it "okay" for?

Let her go, please.

- Don't we have enough bullshit already?
- Stop!

Please step outside, sir.
Please.

Are you okay, Leslie?

How are you?
Do you hurt somewhere?

How are you?

Is this the CPE?

- Yeah.
- Whatever.

What makes them think
that you're hitting on girls?

- Are you worried?
- No, no, not at all.

Just girls' stuff.

So why is she still writing to you?

Because it's a good school.
And they pay attention to everything.

Even girls' stuff.

Send them a photo of us,
it will calm them down.

So we can move on to other things.

I have that, if you want.

What is that?

- I have this one, too.
- Is it me?

I'm awful, where's this from?

- I didn't consent.
- There are plenty of them.

Do you know about consent?

- I delete.
- Go ahead, I have everything on the computer.

I'm not going to say I'm gay
to prove that I don't fall for little girls.

- We'll talk, but calm down.
- Are you going to keep this pervert?

What is this?

He behaves badly with my sister.

- Is this normal?
- Sir.

Come to my office, you'll explain everything to me.

We're going nowhere.

We're going nowhere until he is fired.

You understand very well that things
are not as simple as that.

We're not going to just fire a teacher
because of an unhappy family.

Oh yeah?

Can't you see she is traumatized?

She didn't sleep all night.
She doesn't even dare to move anymore.

Of course she is scared.
Look at yourself.

Please.

Sir, trust me, we will study very thoroughly
what happened.

I don't take this lightly.
Follow me, please.

You'll leave him alone then?
Is that your decision?

Come with me, Leslie.

We're going to the police station.

They don't respect us here.

- Come.
- No, wait.

- Come.
- Wait, please!

Idriss, the hat.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Good morning.

She's at the police station.

Damn.

It's a good thing she's there.

If it doesn't hold up,
they will see it immediately.

You're right.

Calm down and do your classes normally.

- Yeah.
- Okay? Okay.

Thanks.

Come on, get your things, please.

- Joy.
- Joy?

What else?

- Erica.
- Nostalgia.

Nostalgia.

Erica, can you explain to your colleagues

what is that feeling?

Go ahead.
Don't listen to those bullies.

Pardon me?

Are you sick?

I'm not talking to you.

It's sadness.

Well, yes, it is a feeling that can cause sadness.

But where does the sadness come from?

- Goodbye, sir.
- Bye.

Bye.

- Sir...
- Yeah?

Do you want to tell me something?

Yes, but I'm not a snitch,
there are too many here.

You don't have to talk to me.

But it's serious.

Is it serious?

In fact it’s about Océane and Sihem.

They want us to say things about you.
Such as, that you're weird.

I know it's not true,
but they turn everyone against you.

Thank you for warning me.

- Are you going to give me away?
- No, don't worry.

Don't you have class?

I do...

Well then. Hurry up!

Bye, sir.

Bye.

What are you looking at again?

Come and see.

What is it, a cat playing synthesizer?

A crab smoking a joint?

Look.

He's the funniest.

I cannot file a complaint against
Miss Reynaud and her brother

in the name of the establishment.

And I can't either

arbitrarily punish a student
who feels harassed.

His brother threatened to kill me.

In his place, I wouldn't come here anymore.

You know very well, an absent teacher
penalizes the whole class.

What do you suggest then?
For his safety?

What do I say to the supervisors?

The students don't understand why
they're waiting in the courtyard.

I can give you a beep,

which will allow you to enter
and exit through the parking lot.

Thank you, I feel a lot safer.

You'd want him to go through the back door,
like a thief...

We're not going back to class
if you don't help our colleague.

Exactly.

Good. So, Mrs. Slimani, who saw fit
to manage this problem on her own,

will accompany you to the police
to file a complaint on your behalf.

And I, for my part, will report it
to the academic inspectorate.

Would that suit you or not?

Okay.

Thank you. Good bye.

Thanks. Bye.

Bye.

I didn't do any of that.

You are here to report,

not to defend yourself against an accusation
for which the investigation has not even started.

No, I am here to file a complaint

for slanderous denunciation and death threats.

That's not possible.

How so?

- Is that the lassie's letter in your hand?
- Yes.

I'll make a photocopy.

They locked me in the
bathroom and fed me like in prison.

They hit me. Look.
Supposedly, I'm an escort.

That's the rumor going around.
And they listen.

So they hit me. My brothers are not men.
Look what they did to me.

- Do you see or not?
- Are you filing a complaint?

Yes, please.

Why can't I file a complaint?

The girl's complaint must have
an impact on your career.

- And the death threats?
- In front of a witness?

- Yes.
- How many times?

- Mmm. Twice.
- Yes.

- The day it happened?
- Yes.

Then it was out of anger.

You have to understand it, sir.

No, sorry. Should we understand his situation
while nobody cares about mine?

It will create even more problems,
believe me.

Filing a report is the best thing to do.

I'm listening.

After opening the oven door,
unscrew the screws on the panel.

Can you turn down the sound, please?

I advise you to also remove
everything in the oven.

- Please, could you... I can't work with that.
- I do what I can.

We're not going to pay a repairman
if we have to hire a lawyer.

You want to freak me out?

We're not talking about a trial,
it's just an investigation.

You've never heard of judicial errors?

She filed a complaint, remember.

You just filed a report.
They have the advantage.

- Are you mad about the money?
- No, I'm not, I'm just careful, that's all.

I don't have a choice.
Every month, we are on the edge.

- Anyway, if you're going to sing, I have your back.
- You blame me.

No, I'm tired, that's all.

It was last Monday, right after school.

Where are you going? Turn around!

- Who was with you?
- Leslie, Roxana, Erica,

Modibo and Mohamed-Amine.

- Should we bring you anything?
- No, it's okay.

- Where are you going?
- The teacher treats us today.

- And us?
- When you'll make an effort.

- The angry ones.
- Bye.

And no one else?

No.

When we sat down
Modibo made fun of me

because I ordered water.
- Without syrup?

You are a real teacher, eh?

Water is very good like this.

I said the water was good like that...

You never drink it like this?
It's really good.

And I added: "It’s cold."

But I said it without looking at Leslie
particularly, without any intention.

And what did they order?

I'll take... a Greek.

Only salad.

- Kebabs.
- A classic salad.

Biggy samurai sauce.

A classic.

I paid for everybody.

- Is that all?
- Yeah.

- And then?
- I asked, uh...

"What marks are you aiming for?"

Fifteen isn’t bad.

- Roxana, how much are you aiming for?
- Fifteen.

And they joked about it.

Eighteen.

You're day-dreaming.

I personally just don't want my parents
to nag me at home.

But wait, why couldn't you
get the same grade as Erica?

He'll have to work a lot harder.

And Leslie, what did she answer to that question?

And you, Leslie, how much do you want?

- I don't know anymore.
- Couldn't you try to remember?

It's hard to get Leslie out of her shell.

- Where was she sitting?
- In front of me.

And you, Leslie?

So you were facing her, like in a one-on-one?

No, there were six of us at the table
I told you.

I try to create a bond with them.

So, yes, I took the risk
of going outside the box.

You're starting your carreer and
take unnecessary risks, Mr. Keller.

Students enter and leave the class,

enter and leave the college,
we never have time to talk.

I need to... Well, to listen to them.

To understand where are the problems,
to know what I can do to help them get involved.

Many students are at a disadvantage.

We know it. We can clearly see
that there is a problem.

And you think you can solve it alone,
this problem?

You didn't tell yourself that...

this little outing could provoke
the jealousy of others?

No, I thought it would create emulation.

Well, you are a little bit in a mix of people
with these kids.

You are both a teacher, a leader...

Perhaps we should...

meet the parents of each student,
to explain my approach?

No, no, definitely not.

You will create more problems.
Parents will wonder...

With what is going on, it's normal to wonder,
and I have the right to answer to them.

No.

We're not going to take the risk
of things getting out of control.

But things already are out of control, eh?

Mr. Keller.

No waves.

All right?

What is being done then for
functional protection?

I'll be sending your request to the school board.

- Have you written your letter?
- Yes.

Thank you.

- Go ahead, move.
- Go ahead, move!

- Go ahead, speed up.
- You're breaking your balls.

So... "Enjoy every day."

"Hum this melody."
What verb tense is this?

No personal pronoun before the verb.

What tense is it? Adama, wake up.

What tense is it?

Erica.

Why me?

Because, please.

The imperative.

The imperative.
The present imperative.

So, you...

Excuse me, where are you going like that?

Women's stuff. Do you want to come?

You have to ask permission from your seat.
Go sit down.

Forget it.

You can't forbid her, sir.

I don't forbid, I ask her
to ask for permission from her seat.

Silence.

Good.

Change the three sentences
below to the imperative.

What did I tell you?

Hey, the photo!

You should wait a bit.

- Modibo, your notebook.
- I don't have it.

Go get it before class.

I have to go to training, Omar.
Let me pass.

- Your forgetting the notebook...
- Coach is going to beat me up.

He's going to hit you?

- Yeah.
- I don't care.

Get outta here, you're a bully, you.

Are you okay?

He has to have left.

- See you tomorrow.
- See you tomorrow.

- Hi.
- Hi, Julien.

Thank you, Nasser.

On the one hand, there is guilt,
that's one thing.

But there is also responsibility.
And that counts too.

Lane A, pay attention to the passage of...

Listen, we all have our methods.
I don't judge yours.

I don't have the problems you're having.

It could happen to you.

I understand that you are closed to the idea.
But you should think about it.

It doesn't happen to you by chance.

- The kids saw an opportunity, and what they...
- Claire.

- What?
- Let him be.

But what?

It's true, isn't it?

He paid for the kebabs with his money.

Who pays for kebabs for students?

This is the origin of the problem.

You're provoking them, there!

Hello? Yes.

Don't worry.

It's her nature, she is a little...

She likes to be at the center of the debate.

She can take my place.

I screwed up...

Mmm. At least you tried something.

It'll be OK.

- How long does it take?
- I can't find it.

Shit.

This Steve, if he thinks you
did something to his sister...

Okay, stop already.

What "stop"?

They're putting things in place,
they'll protect me.

But who will protect you?

Eh? Your director?

Your school board which is unreachable?

Who will protect you, the police?
Stop, wake up.

I'm sorry, but it worries me.

Oh, yeah? Me too.

I feel all broken.

I know how to fix everything, don't worry.

Do you have a tutorial for that?

Go ahead, make the pass! Come on!

I've had it up to here,
you never pass to me!

Because you don't know how to play!

Good morning. Wouldn't you better
stay with the rest of the teachers?

Better for whom?

- Oh!
- Are you kidding?

The court is made for us,
not for the teachers.

The court doesn't belong to your grandmother,
it is for everyone.

You apologize.

And why? We didn't do anything.

I'm waiting.

- I'll take care of it.
- What does it cost you to apologize?

It's okay, I'll talk to them,
I'll make them understand, I promise.

Well, for now it costs you a ball.

The police say not to talk to you.

I will be in 306.

- Go ahead, move.
- Are you happy?

A big mouth too?

- Come with me.
- Who are you to touch me?

You don't know the kids here.

You're right, I have no experience.

Return the ball, Julien.
We'll summon the students.

Musil will return it to them to make a point.

But you don't take justice into your own hands.
It's not your role in this affair.

I'm sorry, but it's a no.

I set boundaries.

I think the students need them.

And not just the students.

It's for them, but for us too.
We can't do whatever we feel like.

- In theory, you're right.
- Well then, if I'm right, that's it.

Look at your paper, Seif.

You said in class that the rose
was the female sex?

Well, no.

But it was a student who
proposed this interpretation.

And you didn't set him straight?

Well, no, I'm not going to set straight
a student who...

formulates an admissible hypothesis. I...

I am a teacher. I have to make them talk.
I have to...

Not silence them.

But you guide the discussion.

Well no, not at all, I...

I start from their intuitions each time,
and I try...

to make them go further in their analysis...
- So there is no limit?

Can we say anything?

Listen, we were studying Ronsard.

The poem is about love,
of seduction, of desire...

What should I do?

Did you talk about your
private life with your students?

What do you mean?

Do they know you are homosexual?

Do you talk about your love life
to people who question you?

I am not one of your students,
don't lecture me.

Simply answer my questions.

No, I didn't tell them.

That could have helped you.

For once.

He will count you first.

You can go there.

Leave him.

Okay, uh...

- There's few of us, but it will be great.
- Yeah.

- Shall we, ma'am?
- I warn the parents that we are leaving the college.

Are you going to tell them everything
in real time?

They asked me to, they are worried.

You have to understand them too.

That was great, what you said
about the birth of the universe.

It didn't seem to fascinate them.

You never know, it might make
a future astronaut,

and somebody will tell you about it,
you don't know...

I like your hands.

They are rough, but I like them.

I think I'm going to take the bus today.

- With all the transfers?
- Yes.

I need light.

- See you tomorrow?
- Mmm.

- Good evening.
- Good evening.

- You're not angry, are you?
- No, no.

What is that?

What was it?

Give me that.
Give me your phone.

It's not me, it's...

Hey!

- Go ahead.
- Give me your phone.

Careful with the networks, sir.

How do you...?

That's enough.
Turn off the phones!

I don't want to hear anything anymore.

Aminata, you give me that too.

That's enough!
Turn off the phones!

Uh, sir?

You dance like my cousin.

What's with this story?

This is going too far.

It's my privacy.

Why didn't you say from the beginning
that you live with a man?

Why? Would that have exonerated me?

- My word is not enough for you?
- Well, no.

That's not enough, no!

We take risks by trusting you.

And I'm not happy with myself.

We all defended you unanimously,
it’s corporatism.

We must deconstruct these old reflexes.

What difference does it make, who I live with?

You're accused of harassing a girl!
That clarifies the situation, doesn't it?

In these neighborhoods
I wouldn't count on that.

Homosexuality... it's not necessarily well seen.

You should get a lawyer.

With what money?

My boyfriend and I, we're broke.

- We could use the pool to help him, couldn't we?
- It's a complicated decision.

It is taking justice into our own hands.

What does that mean, in fact?

That means we don't take into account
the word of this girl who may be a victim.

Well, yes, sorry, we don't know anything.

And then you arrive here, you...
you don't say anything about yourself.

You see, all day close to the students
and distant with us.

All right.

Is that it, you felt hurt?
Forgive me.

Should we vote for the pool?

So.

Who's in favour?

Who is against?

Who abstains?

So there are five in favour and six against.

And two abstensions.

Laura?

- Laura?
- Leave me alone, please.

- You don't want to talk about it?
- I'm listening.

No?

I don't understand, we spent time together,
we took trips.

It should have been easy to talk to me, right?

But maybe you didn't want to talk to me.

Maybe you prefer ambiguity.

Or maybe you like to be liked.

Sorry for the pool.

- No!
- Found!

Found the little foot.
- Who wants kicks?

I'm going to eat it.

I'm going to eat this foot!
- I peed!

I peed myself!

- Bad dog, naughty dog!
- Wait.

- He's not there anymore.
- Wicked!

- It's over.
- Julian, please!

Can you wipe me, please?

I don't know how to do it alone.

- I'll take care of it.
- I peed, mom.

But what happened?
Come on, it doesn't matter.

Do you forgive me?
- Yes, my darling.

I'm going to eat these little butts.
Hop, off to the shower!

I called back right after. I was like,

"I am sorry, but I need that daycare spot."

I'm weak, that's it!
I am weak!

They still do that?

I wanted to tell you, my uncle called me.

- Mohammed?
- Yes.

He opens a hammam.

He asked me to be a
partner on the project.

What?

I didn't say anything.

At least I will have a fixed salary.

The end of each month,
I can't take it anymore.

After everything they did to you...

It's you who talks about forgiveness.

My uncle didn't do anything to me,
he never got involved.

Not getting involved is a manner of
getting involved.

That says something.

- I'm sorry if that bothers you.
- No.

- I should have shut up.
- Oh, it's okay.

But hey, you're right, it's nothing.

You didn't get to see your father
before they closed his coffin.

- Was your uncle there?
- Are you serious?

Yeah. Did he say anything?

But you have to forgive, so...

- We forgive.
- You disgust me.

Are you using my secrets against me?

Yeah, I don't understand, it's silly.
You're annoying.

It's you who called your uncle,
you can say it to me.

Like, it's for the money, or whatever.

He needs a family now.

Because he's getting ready to leave me.

He covers his back.
- You're pissing everybody off.

It's good, that way you'll never be alone.

He will always have his uncle.

- You're ridiculous.
- Wait, don't leave, he'll calm down.

I don't understand what you're playing at,
Julien? Hey!?

He is with you. What's going on?

Walid!

Walid.

Pardon.

Are your colleagues absent?

Are they late?

I think they won't come today, sir.

- They hang out in the corridors, is that it?
- No.

They are with the police.

Yassine,

can you go to the board and underline
the circumstantial complements?

- We'll help you.
- I don't want to.

- What?
- I don't want to, that's all.

What is it? How are you?

They say that... they say that I'm mad about you,
because I don't agree with them.

Wesh, who says that?
It's not good, brother.

Yassine, are you going
to tell me who told you that?

I will get them straight away.

Aren't you ashamed?

- I have nothing to do with that.
- Me neither.

That's it, of course.

I have nothing to do with this.

Come, Yassine, please.

Thank you.

- See you tomorrow.
- See you tomorrow.

See you tomorrow.

There is no deadline for it.

The decision for protection
can take 2-3 months.

And if it is not accepted,
there is no notification.

I'm waiting for a response
which perhaps will never arrive?

Do you have any relationship with
the chief of your establishment?

He promised to help me.

Excuse me, my partner has received death threats
on multiple occasions.

Can't his boss file a complaint for him?

No.

Yes, absolutely.

- How so?
- He certainly can do it.

But in general, they follow another logic.

Suppose the school files a report
against a student's parent.

The school can rise up if the parent is right.

So you can make death threats
without being brought to justice?

Even better, they are protected.

Unfortunately, yes.

In case of functional protection,
your legal costs are covered.

You must be patient.

The prosecutor must hear several people
before deciding if it is founded.

That takes time
and you are not a priority.

Justice is slow, and moreover it's overwhelmed.

- Especially where you teach.
- In the meantime, how do I live?

Lean on your friend, he is there for you.

I'm here for him.

It's my friend who gave me his savings
to pay the legal costs.

Nothing more to do. Anything else?

Julian.

Cut.

No, it's...

It's okay.

We covered everything.
- I remain available, don't hesitate.

- Okay, thanks.
- Have a good day.

- I don't understand my grade.
- Me too.

What don't you understand?

All.

Editing an essay is subjective.

Your grade could have been better
with a different teacher,

but also, and this looks more likely to me,
even worse.

It's because we spoke to the police
that you give me such grade.

You are taking revenge on us.

- Really, it's not good.
- Yes.

Your worries shouldn't count
when you correct our work.

We need anonymous copies to ensure
that you are correcting impartially.

- Yes, no name.
- This wouldn't change anything.

It wouldn't change anything,
I know your handwriting.

No, that's not true. You are lying.

Shall I explain?

No sentence stands up.

When we write, we think about the point
at the end of the sentence.

It's not one word, then another,
then another.

And you invent. "Voyelle" is not the feminine of "voyau".

Voyelle is "there's the buffoon", she is.

Modibo, are you laughing?
Everyone has their own problems.

You know that, right?

What kind of life do you want?

You have no ambitions, no hope?

Of course.

Hey, we don't do that!

- What?
- We don't do that.

There's no need to look at me.

Okay.

Give back my pencil.

Go get treatment, you bipolar.
Get up!

Maxime, get up.

- Get up. Hurry up.
- I'll break your mouth.

Get up, because you are going to
accompany your colleague to the CPE.

- What?
- Yes.

- Finally!
- Good for your face.

- And you say nothing!
- You harvest what you sow!

Do you understand the metaphor,
or do you want me to explain it?

Out!

- Bye!
- Bye, thank you, Maxime.

What is this?

I am the delegate. I'm writing down
what you says for the police.

My mother agrees it's a good idea.
- "What you say".

- The same.
- No, it's not the same. No at all.

Is your mother a teacher?
Does she work in law?

No, but she said you
will end up raped in prison.

You say nothing?

Tell your mother to mind her own business.
Okay?

- Keep my mother out of this.
- But you're the one talking about her.

"The teacher bit his lip like in a porn movie."

You're weird, you.

She's hot.

You're sick.

You're a weird girl.

Do you watch porn?

- No.
- Well, you do too.

Because you know how an actor bites his lip
in a porn movie.

You didn't invent that, you saw it.

You gave yourself away there.

Your mother will be happy
when I tell her that you watch porn movies.

She'll be thrilled.

- A big slut.
- Yes, it's true, you're right.

What are you saying, Modibo?

That she acts very serious and lectures
everyone, but she is a dirty bitch.

Don't talk like that to your colleague.
Apologize.

You wouldn't defend her,
if you knew what she says about you.

That doesn't interest me.

- Actually...
- I'm not interested!

The problem is not what you write,
it’s the way you write.

Five mistakes per sentence.

That's a failure.

Yours and mine.

Listen, thank you for bringing it,
I will keep this garbage.

For what?

For what?

To supposedly help me?

You will lower your voice, please.
I am defending you here.

That's not true.

And I know it.

I called school board to ask for
functional protection.

- You haven't sent them my letters.
- I won't allow you.

What, to tell the truth?

You only think about your little points,

that you need to accumulate
to go to a more prestigious establishment.

You have nothing to do with these students.

You are there, locked in your office.

I thought it was fear. It's forgivable, but...

In fact, you don't care.
- How do you dare?

It was all to protect you,
to save you from being blamed.

Even if it's true,
you should have asked for my opinion.

You should have presented the situation to me.

So now, if you don't want me
to attack the establishment,

who also has the right to file a complaint
for one of its agents,

I have asked for a lawyer.

If you don't want waves,

you will have to help me.

Really.

I think Mr Keller wanted to add something.

Yes, let Leslie, Océane and
Sihem be excluded from my class.

I don't agree.

They have the right to receive
the same education as the others.

Yes, except that I
can no longer work.

They excluded themselves of my class.

And this penalizes all the other students.

Let's ask the delegates.

Alright.

Roxana.

What do you think?

What are the lessons like with them?

Well, if you ask me, I think that...

Sorry, ma'am, I wasn't talking to you.

We're listening to you, Roxana.

It's true that they are insolent.

And even insulting.
And not just with the French teacher.

- Roxana...
- Claire, we're listening to Roxana here.

You are so concerned
about the students' right to speak up,

and you want to gag Roxana?
We're going to listen to it.

Please.

It would be better...

- We didn't hear you.
- It would be better without them.

Okay. Did I ask you to say that?

No.

- Samir, what do you think?
- Uh... I don't know.

- Would you say that Roxana is right?
- Yes.

Ah.

Thanks.

There.

Don't worry, the three students will receive
the homework and lessons.

And maybe, with this personalized method,
they will learn something.

Claire, what kind of grades do they have with you?

Sihem, two.

Océane, three. Good.
What did you score?

"Below her abilities". Yeah.

"Below her capabilities". All right.

Original. Are you copying and pasting?
Do you sometimes personalize?

- I love you explaining me how to work.
- That must sting a little, that.

You don't think it's going to add
fuel to the fire by ostracizing them?

Oh, that's okay!

I'm sick of hearing this.

Let's stop hiding our faces.

It wouldn't hurt.

- I have Leslie's little brother.
- Yes, Kylian.

- Kylian, yes.
- And uh...

They all talk about persecution,
with his sister.

- Persecution?
- Yes.

Okay.

Well, maybe... take the opportunity
to educate a bit?

Tell them that the truth
comes when you hear all sides?

A little reminder, just in case.

I don't know, aren't we making future citizens?

Alright.

We could set up a system.

So as not to penalize girls.

That's exactly what I was asking for.

That they do their homework
in your office, Nora,

and I correct them, impartially.

Let's go with that,

then we'll see how it works.

You talk more about me, huh.

I beg your pardon?

Don't put me in your stories.

You are you asking me
not to speak about you?

While you tell horror stories about me?

While you put pressure on your colleagues
to tell lies?

Come.

Let me go, he thinks I'm joking with him.

You know, I can tell you again
what I said.

That, in my opinion, I didn't give you
the attention that you needed.

And I'm sorry about that.

Hi.

- How are you?
- Is that him over there?

Leave it, come on.

Hey, faggot!

What did you say?

- Dirty fag.
- Walid!

- Walid, no, stop, stop!
- Hey, let it go.

Stop, let him go.

- Let him go, Selim.
- I know where to find you.

- Let me go.
- It's good, it's OK.

Mind your own ass.

We're going to see each other again.

- It's good.

- Come. Don't worry.

Come on, tidy up!

Do you know what he told me?

Eh?

That he knew where we lived.

I translate how we say
"dirty faggot" in Arabic?

- What is to do now?
- What "what is to do"?

Do you want to go back?

Go get your legs broken
when you get out of college!

Look me in the eyes and tell me
you won't go back anymore.

We are in the middle of the year, I can't.
I won't be replaced.

Sorry. I forgot, you're essential, right?

The world won't go round
without Mr. Keller?

Eh?

Maybe it's a mistake to want to change
people's lives.

Yes, it's a mistake.

It’s you who is making you happy.

I want to be that teacher
that you don't forget.

The one that changes a life.

Like the one who changed mine.

Sir?

You should leave.

Leave, please.

- Sir, I...
- Leslie.

Go back to your colleagues.

I don't know how to do it anymore.

Leave, Leslie.

You talk about what you want with
whoever you want, but not with me.

At home...

At home, that's all he talks about.

I can't take it anymore.

Do you think I'm happy?

I was wrong.

But I can't tell anyone, it's too late.

I'm afraid of my brother.

And when I told my mother
she asked me not to say anything.

She too, she is afraid of him.

We are afraid when he is angry,
you understand.

You must hate me.

No.

No.

Excuse me.

I think it's Leslie's little brother and his friends.

- Have you seen them?
- No, but it's obvious.

Or it’s Océane, Sihem,
and those who support them.

In their eyes, we are covering up a criminal.

Some parents want to call the press.

What?

I can't take it anymore.

Julien, do something.

Me?

Well, yes, I don't know, it's because of you
that we're in this situation.

A suicide perhaps?

Shall we vote?

Who is in favour?

- Who is against?
- Stop, Julien.

It's not funny.

Who abstains?

We keep calm.

It's an exercise.

We keep calm.

Youssef, close the curtain there. Erica, front.

It's like an intrusion, as if
we were being attacked.

We make a shield with the tables.
Please.

Come on! Oh, oh!

Listen to me!
Listen to me, please.

You're going to hurt yourself!

Please, stop!
It's dangerous, what you're doing!

Calm down there, oh!
Calm down, please!

You're going to hurt yourself!

That's enough!

Listen to me, please!

No! Why did you open the door?

Because of you, we are all dead.

Do you hear me?

Do you understand what I'm saying?

Because of you we're all dead!

We're all dead!

Mr. Keller, let him go.

Let it go.

Let's go.

Hurry up. Get out.

He opened the door.
