The Teachers' Lounge
Das Lehrerzimmer
A dedicated young teacher, Carla Nowak, sets up her laptop to catch a thief in the teachers' lounge after a series of petty thefts at her school. When the footage implicates a staff member, her act of investigation ignites a firestorm of institutional conflict, ethical dilemmas, and escalating pressure from students, colleagues, and parents that spins rapidly out of control.
