Madame Hyde

Madame Hyde is a 2017 French drama film directed by Serge Bozon.

[1] Drawing on the 1886 novella Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson, it tells the story of a struggling school teacher who is suddenly imbued with new powers.

Her class is mostly rough youths of foreign ancestry who show little respect for a small mature Frenchwoman.

A particular difficulty she faces is a boy called Malik, crippled from birth and bright, who tries to emulate the class toughs by being disruptive.

It gives her new confidence by day: winning the attention of her class, involving them in experiments, getting them into intelligent discussions, and passing the annual inspection with top marks.
