Synopsis – What to Expect from “The Kindergarten Teacher”
The Kindergarten Teacher is a 2018 drama film directed by Sara Colangelo and starring Maggie Gyllenhaal. It follows Lisa Spinelli, a kindergarten teacher in Staten Island, who discovers a five-year-old prodigy in her class and becomes obsessed with nurturing his talent.
The film begins with Lisa Spinelli, played by Maggie Gyllenhaal, teaching a kindergarten class in Staten Island. She is a passionate teacher but is increasingly frustrated with her job and her life, which is stuck in a rut. One day, she discovers a five-year-old student in her class, Jimmy Roy, who has a remarkable talent for poetry. Lisa becomes obsessed with nurturing Jimmy’s talent and begins to neglect her own life, even going so far as to steal his poems and submit them to a poetry competition.
As Lisa’s obsession with Jimmy grows, she begins to neglect her own family, including her husband and teenage son. As her obsession deepens, she takes increasingly extreme measures to protect Jimmy’s talent, including kidnapping him from school. As Lisa’s actions become more desperate, she must face the consequences of her actions and decide what is best for Jimmy and for her own family.
The Kindergarten Teacher is a powerful and emotional story about the power of art and the lengths we will go to protect it. It is a thought-provoking exploration of the power of obsession and the consequences
