When "Alternative Math" begins, a boy comes to his teacher about his failing grade on a test. Instead of accepting any criticism, the boy storms off. Soon, his parents come to school and demand the boy get a perfect grade. They are not only unreasonable, but verbally and physically abusive towards the poor teacher. Soon after, the principal arrives....taking the parents' side against the teacher. And, soon after that, it gets even worse....as everyone is angry because the teacher had the nerve to say that the student was wrong...which he clearly was.
In so many ways, this film is funny BUT also has a lot to say about modern culture and parenting....or perhaps the lack of parenting. Well made and well worth seeing...and a scary parable about modern society.

I only discovered this little gem in June 2021. Had I discovered it in 2017, the past four years might have been a little easier. Don't let it drive you away early in frustration - that's just to make the payoff at the very end all the sweeter.
My review is the review of a teacher. who discovers "Alternative Math" as a brilliant masterpiece. sure, for the performance of Allyn Carrell. but especialy, for the smart way to present the essence of political correctness, dictatorship of studedents and parents, relativism as essence of social happiness. a great film. for the precise exploration, in absurde manner, at the first sigh, of a real menace against school. that did this short film a must see. as warning. as parable. and as recipe of resistence against few "sweet" demons.
This movie is just about post-truth as stated in its summary. It's not about teachers, parenting or political correctness. There is an objective fact and there are people who say that it is subjective. And since that fact is so simple and so well known when people say there can be different opinions about it, it becomes so fun to watch yet still makes you think.
Masterpiece. So glad nobody sued them for hurting feelings of any kind of....any person.
