Nobody likes teacher Paul Hunham (Paul Giamatti), not his students, not his fellow faculty, not the headmaster, who all find his pomposity and rigidity exasperating. With no family and nowhere to go over Christmas holiday in 1970, Paul remains at school to supervise students unable to journey home.

But while this is a story about brutality and profound suffering, it is also a story about human resilience, and about astonishing acts of grace and courage.
