Teachers

Directed by Arthur Hiller
They fall asleep in class. Throw ink on each other. Never come in Mondays. And they're just the teachers.

A teacher reconnects with an old student who is now an attorney representing a family who is suing the school for graduating their son who still cannot read or write. Amid the daily chaos of teaching in an inner city school, Alex Jurel tries to decide if he will lie at his deposition to protect the school or tell the truth and risk throwing away his career.
