🎬 Movie

Teacher Anna begins each day with the Morgenkreis, a morning circle where her pupils share their thoughts. Her classroom is a blend of German and Russian, with children's drawings of war and peace hanging on the walls. The film observes how complex themes of migration, trauma, and adaptation surface within the school's safe haven. The camera captures unscripted moments—genuine childlike reactions, arguments, and instances of silent understanding. This is less a chronicle of education and more a record of an attempt to build an island of normality in a world these children did not choose. The documentarian forgoes voiceover commentary, inviting viewers to draw their own conclusions.
