Part psychological thriller and part provocative character study, A Teacher explores the unraveling of a young highschool teacher, Diana, after she begins an affair with one of her teenage students, Eric. What starts as a seemingly innocent fling becomes increasingly complex and dangerous as the beautiful and confident Diana gets fully consumed by her emotions, crossing boundaries and acting out in progressively startling ways. A descent into the mind of an adult driven to break taboos against her better judgment.
