Cracked (2025)
What does what we teach children inside and outside the classroom reveal about the world? How can we effectively and meaningfully communicate to them what is happening around them? The news that Teacher Celeste will leave her class has filled the children with sadness, as she has only a few days left before moving to another school. Together, they experience a September full of movements, directions, and revelations, in the beloved universe of a classroom in a Mexican village.
