Skirt Day
Drama
A teacher, driven to exasperation from insults and insubordination, takes her class hostage.
VIBE
This film feels like a pressure cooker. It's an uncomfortably intimate, raw look at adolescent rebellion boiling over into a tense, claustrophobic standoff. The gritty realism makes every moment feel uncomfortably real.
