The Teacher

Oh gosh-the sound of nails scratching a chalkboard! That genuinely gave me chills. I also loved the absolutely wild look of the teacher-much better than what the thumbnail or cover suggested.

The story in this short film is as simple as it gets: do your homework, or the teacher will come for you. Thankfully, my kids' teachers only send an email. Interestingly, for a four-minute film, it feels surprisingly long-in a good way. There's no filler here; everything that happens within those four minutes feels necessary.

Being myself teacher and being seduced by short films directed by Alex Magana, fair option this The Teacher reminding, from different perspective , the fear - risk to not prepair your homework.

The warning of a mate , in strange way present in bedroom. The ignore of good advice by young girl. The night and his sunds. The light of iphone victorious after three tries. And the strange lady, miss Scribbleton at duty .

A charming four minutes film for the resurrection of old fears from school period and for nice use of a presumed fantaisy of a teacher against lazy- indifferent students.

And, sure, for remind the old image of teacher - omnipresent, keeping watch at school, at home...
