SYNOPSIS:  “Kranich is a newly qualified teacher about to take up his first post. As soon as he arrives at the school he is plunged into a nightmare kafkaesque world which has all the worst features of a totalitarian state. The four pillars of the school system as the headmaster explains on Kranich’s very first day there are, ‘fear, misery, pretence and lies’.”
