Mr. Bachmann And His Class explores the close bond between an elementary school teacher and his students. His unconventional methods clash with the complex social and cultural realities of the provincial German industrial town they live in.

Wow. At the beginning, I never imagined sitting through a more-than-3 hour documentary and enjoying every minute. (We watched over two evenings.) This unbelievable work is like watching the world's kindest, most loving and warm grandpa help a rag-tag collection of immigrants adopt to a new language, a new country, school, and adolescence with warmth, humanity and gentleness. I'd like to hang out with this guy! Kudos to Maria Speth for this capture.
