Carla Nowak (Leonie Benesch), a dedicated teacher, starts working at a high school when one of her students is suspected of theft.

As the idealist that she is, Carla decides to take the matter into her own hands, while confronting the structures of the school system and the consequences of her own actions.

İlker Çatak’s brilliantly observed and Oscar®-nominated drama plays out like a thriller, expertly exploring the fault lines of contemporary society.
