Today, 17 April, the Virtual Cinema Room was opened, a platform promoted by the distribution company A Contracorriente Films to showcase the premieres that were to come to the big screen this season. La vie scolaire, based on the directors’ own experiences, tells the story of Samia, a young teacher who takes over as head of studies in a school in the suburbs of Paris where she discovers the discipline problems and social reality that weigh on the neighbourhood.
It has been a pleasure to interview the directors, Mehdi Idir and Grand Corps Malade, in their respective confinements, from where they continue to work on new projects.
