Directed by Teddy Lussi-Modeste

A tense, morally complex drama about a teacher caught in a spiraling false accusation, exploring how institutional panic and social pressure can destroy a life.
Julien, a young teacher, is wrongfully accused of sexual misconduct by a teenage girl from his class. As he faces mounting pressures from the girl’s older brother and her classmates, the situation spirals out of control. Allegations spread, the entire school is thrown into turmoil, and the teacher has to fight to clear his name.
