Class 6B of the Georg-Büchner-Schule in the town of Stadhalendorf in the German state of Hesse is the focus of this extraordinary fly-on-the-wall documentary. The 12 and 13-year-old children are taught by 3 teachers, but the lion's share of this 3½ hour film focuses on 64-year-old Dieter Bachmann, a former sociologist who switched to primary education after 15 years and after a number of years of struggling. decided to take a different approach. In a conversation with a colleague, he marvels at the fact that he has never been fired, because both in word and deed he makes it clear that subjects such as mathematics and language are subordinate to the well-being of the students. He has extensive personal conversations with “his children”, makes every topic open for discussion and forces students to think and talk about their ideas, their behavior, their emotions and uses classmates as a mirror image. As a former teacher, I would love to see this become the standard in education. An inspiring, fascinating, moving, funny, heart-warming, but above all hopeful masterpiece.
