The Teachers Protest

2019, 80 minutes

The Teachers' Protest is a sad, tender and uplifting documentary exploring a completely different kind of war story

1942. Occupied Norway. Teachers must join the Nazi Teachers' League and teach Nazi ideas in their classrooms. 8,000 of them write protest letters. They are threatened with salary withdrawal and the sack. Still they refuse. In a desperate attempt to break them, the Nazi government arrests 1000 male teachers and sends them to prison camps, 300 miles above the Arctic Circle. The education system is in chaos and now the battle begins.
