Rai 3 to broadcast French film ‘Guida pratica per insegnanti’

The French comedy-drama ‘Guida pratica per insegnanti’ (Un métier sérieux), directed by Thomas Lilti, is scheduled to air on Rai 3 on Friday, September 11, at 21:20.

The film follows Benjamin, a PhD student played by Vincent Lacoste, who accepts a contract teaching position at a secondary school in the Parisian suburbs due to financial necessity. Lacking formal training or experience, Benjamin must navigate the complexities of classroom management, student conflicts, and relationships with parents.

As he learns that academic knowledge alone is insufficient for teaching, Benjamin finds support in a diverse group of colleagues. This includes Pierre (François Cluzet), an experienced professor; Meriem (Adèle Exarchopoulos), a teacher balancing career and motherhood; Fouad (William Lebghil), an English teacher with unorthodox methods; and Sandrine (Louise Bourgoin). The story focuses on the professional and personal dynamics within the teaching staff as they face the challenges of a school year.
