The Country Teacher

A young science teacher (Pavel Liska) develops a close relationship with a troubled student's mother (Zuzana Bydzovská)─a connection that remains strictly platonic because the instructor is gay. When the teacher's ex-boyfriend (Marek Daniel) appears on the scene, he develops an interest in the pupil while realizing that his former lover has kept his sexuality a secret. Affecting Czech drama co-stars Ladislav Sedivy, Cyril Drozda. 113 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: Czech Dolby Digital stereo; Subtitles: English; bonus short "Peter and Ben" (2008).
