O Substituto
24/04/2011
Henry Barthes é um educador com grande talento para estabelecer ligação com os seus alunos. No entanto, Henry optou por enterrar o seu dom. Passando os dias como professor substituto, evita convenientemente quaisquer ligações emocionais ao não ficar tempo suficiente em lado nenhum para se apegar quer a alunos, quer a colegas. Quando é colocado numa escola pública, onde uma direção frustrada e esgotada criou um corpo estudantil apático, Henry torna-se rapidamente num exemplo para os jovens desafeiçoados. Ao descobrir uma ligação emocional improvável com os alunos, os professores e uma adolescente foragida que recolhe das ruas, Henry apercebe-se de que não está sozinho na sua luta de vida e de morte para encontrar beleza num mundo aparentemente cruel e sem amor.
