The protagonist of the film, Henry Bachtis a teacher who has a talent for some kind of emotional communication with students, but he chose to bury this talent. In order to avoid any "emotional communication" with students or his colleagues, he chose to be a substitute teacher, staying at each school for a short time, and then leaving.
Soon after, he came to a new job and assigned him to teach in a poor public school with no administrators. The students here are defiant, and teaching is extremely difficult to carry out. Henry's talents are reflected here. He soon became a model teacher in this school and an idol for teenagers in the rebellious period. After forming an emotional connection with his colleagues, students, and the teenager he rescued from the street, he found that he was not alone in this world. And Henry also saw the beautiful life and humanity in this seemingly cruel world.

    At the end of the movie, only indifference and cruelty remain. You can't get rid of all this. The past and the present, the spirit and the body, the ideal and the reality, the education and the future, it is obviously simpler to choose indifference and ignore everything compared with confrontation with reality. Taking self-defeating and abandoning yourself as a personality flaunt is like making yourself more rebellious and violent, making yourself stronger than others. The lethality of this movie is too great, and it does not give you a chance to ease your emotions! ★★★★★

Detachment quotes

  • Henry Barthes: I am money, I change hands like the dollar bill, that has been rubbed by a lamp; Then a genie appeared and cried loudly, with volume; But the tears were all for myself, and that's where it all went wrong

  • Henry Barthes: [In nursing home] Grampa, you doing any writing in your journal?

    [Thumbs through empty journal]

    Grampa: I don't remember much, I lost the habit. You can't think in this place, you can't make new memories.
