25 children and their dedicated teacher. More than 60 percent of all children in Viennese primary schools do not speak German as their first language. At the same time, there is an acute shortage of teachers and supervisors. Such adverse conditions are the starting point of the film. The result is an astonishingly cheerful portrait of an unusual community. A film about teaching and learning and the often very surprising experiences somewhere in between.
