In the presence of:
- Hafsia Herzi the 4 November 2019 - 19:00
When the visit of her best friend turns to a disaster, a young French girl leaves to be by herself in a remote corner of New York State. Custom-made for Hafsia Herzi, This Teacher analyzes an America that is self-centered and consumed by its fear of others. Ruthless!
“Are you afraid? You want me to apologize for September 11 and you don’t like me because I’m Muslim, right?”, the heroine asks in this surprising movie. A second collaboration between Hafsia Herzi and Mark Jackson, the role was tailor-made for her. An instinctive and solitary heroine, she shoots on sight to save her skin. An uncompromising and rampant reflection on racism and islamophobia in the US of today.
