Monday morning, 8 AM. Luise from class 10a submits a note excusing her from physical education. Valeska wants a similar document so that the job center will cover the costs of the class trip. Max needs one too; unfortunately, he has lost his document. Diego wants to show off his scrape and is already menacingly wrapping his bandage. Teacher Gabriele Frydrych tries to rise above it all and conduct her German lesson. With a lot of humor and a big heart, she shares why school life becomes truly chaotic when litigious parents show up and so-called experts advise her on finger yoga and mindfulness training. The voices of beleaguered school secretaries, cleaning staff, cafeteria operators, and educators are also heard.
