Good morning.

THE TEACHER:

Sit down.

Welcome back to school

after the holidays.

I am Mria Drazdechov,

your new class teacher.

Together, we will be battling

Russian, Slovak and history.

I hope you're looking forward to it

as much as I am.

But first I want to get to know you,

so I will now read out your names,

each of you will stand up

so I can see you

and tell me your parents' work

or line of business

Good'?

Very well.

Ambrozov, Katarna.

So, Katka

what do your mum and dad do?

Mum works at the shop

and dad is a carpenter.

-So he could fix something for us.

-He's more of a model maker.

Let's ask him anyway, okay?

Good, sit down.

Brtov, Helenka.

Dad works at a construction site abroad,

and mum was a hairdresser,

but now she's home

with my baby sister.

-Does she work at home now?

-Only long-term customers.

Good.

Bna, Milo.

Dad drives a taxi and mum's

at the housing co-op.

And father says that if you

ever need a lift, no problem.

Thank your father for me.

Binder, Filip.

He's not here.

Hancov, Janka.

My parents are designers in Prague.

-Wasn't grandpa in school administration?

-No, he's retired now.

Hampl, Josef.

Dad's a mason and mum's a cook.

-Come again?

-Dad's a mason and mum's a cook.

Kucerov, Danka.

Mum's a lab assistant

and coaches gymnastics.

-And your father?

-He works at the airport.

-He's a pilot?

-No, an accountant.

Malinovsky, Anton.

My father's a judge.

-Where?

-At the district court.

imekov, Zuzana.

Mum's a waitress

and dad works at the Crystal Bar.

Nemec, Juraj.

and mum is a nurse.

Doctor.

Rehkov,Alenka.

Father is an invalid.

And Vojcek, Miroslav?

-Mum is a greengrocer.

-Where?

-At the central... the central market.

-All right.

-She has a stand there?

-She does.

Good.

Zimka, Ondrej.

Mum works at the kindergarten

and father died.

-Good morning.

-Good morning.

Sorry that I'm late, comrade.

-What's your name?

-Filip Binder.

-I see. And why are you late?

-The tram was late.

Now stand up and tell us

what your parents do.

My mum is a bus dispatcher

and dad is a car mechanic.

Fixes buses at the depot.

Tell her.

Dad is a former national champion

in freestyle wrestling.

If he wanted to, he could beat you all up

with his hands tied.

Good evening,

I'm glad to see you all here

at this special parents' meeting.

Comrade Chvalovsk

will be taking the minutes.

You probably know

why we're here.

What happened is serious

and we need to state our position.

I can promise that

if we don't reach a conclusion,

everything will remain

between us.

I have no idea

what this is about.

Excuse me, I want to ask

why is comrade teacher not here?

-That should be obvious.

-What do you mean?

That the person

we're discussing is not here.

Yes, and that is not right.

First I would like to know

what actually happened.

We invited comrade Drazdechov,

but she excused herself.

I'm sure she did.

Of course we informed her about

today's meeting

and she will learn

the results in detail.

-Im sorry, but I don't like this.

Shouldn't we wait for her'?

-Couldn't it be on purpose?

-In principle, this is wrong.

-In principle? That's rich.

-What's going on is right?

Mrs Kucerov, it was you

who initiated this meeting.

It's about your daughter.

We all know that.

-I don't know anything.

-Wait, wait, please.

After much deliberation,

I decided to call this meeting myself.

-What do you think?

-It's a chance to get rid of her.

It's horrible what happened.

I know. But she's the chairwoman

of the Communist Party at this school.

If at least some parents join,

they'll have to do something.

Jesus Christ!

I've read your request to transfer

the kids to another school.

-But I haven't passed it on yet.

-Why?

Well, your address

is in our catchment area.

The nearest school that could

take them is full.

But most importantly,

the reasons that you state

are not the real issue here.

We all know that.

Write down the real reasons

for your decision to do this.

-And file an official complaint.

-What kind of complaint?

Here's a template

of what it should look like.

-Who will be handling it?

-Send it to me.

Once I have something specific,

I can pass it on.

But I need a place to start.

Excuse me, how long

have you known about this?

Have you been waiting

for something to happen?

Look, my position is difficult.

I am the head teacher,

but comrade Drazdechov

is the Party chairwoman.

Her late husband was an officer

and her sister lives in Moscow.

If I am to do anything,

I need to have solid information.

It's likely that I'll be gone

before I can achieve anything.

But things have gotten so far

that I've decided to take the risk.

I'm afraid my signature

would complicate everything.

Yes, Mr Littmann.

Please do not sign it yet.

You'll only join once we have enough...

credible witnesses.

If we find any.

-Seems most people like it this way.

-Maybe not everyone.

I don't want more stress for Danka.

I want to move her to another school.

You can do that.

No one is stopping you.

But we want this to end,

don't we?

Nothing will change.

They'll sweep it under the rug.

It's just us and you.

What do you want to do next?

If this weren't so serious,

I'd look for other options.

Could someone finally tell us

what's going on?

We do not know about anything

she would do wrong.
