Teacher (2023)

In a time when teachers are leaving the profession at an alarming pace, Nkanga Nsa makes the selfless choice to change careers and dive headfirst into the classroom. "Teacher" chronicles her transformative yearlong residency at Curtis Elementary in the Roseland Community on the Southside of Chicago. Through the process we get an inside look at the challenges teachers face in and out of the classroom and explore the root causes of the teacher shortage.
