Maria Montessori
Directed by Léa Todorov
Produced by Geko Films, Tempesta
A period drama about two women—a courtesan and an educational pioneer—finding common ground through compassion and the transformative power of teaching a child society has abandoned.
Set in 1900, Lili d’Alengy, a Parisian cocotte at the height of her fame, flees Paris to hide her “idiot” daughter. There she meets Maria Montessori, who is pioneering a teaching method that may help the child.
