This Teacher is a 2018 film directed by Mark Jackson and distributed by Breaking Glass Pictures.
[5] A French Muslim woman (Hafsia Herzi) travels to New York City from the rough neighborhoods outside of Paris to visit her childhood best friend Zahra (Sarah Kazemy).
Hafsia steals Sarah's credit card and identity, then disappears to a remote cabin upstate.
Initially a couple, teacher Rose (Lucy Walters) and policeman Darren (Kevin Kane), help her.
This third act explores themes such as the inherent racism and naivety that comes along with being a white American, that most white Americans don't even know they have or the rampant Islamophobia that has overtaken most of the world, and the difficulties of being a Muslim, particularly a Muslim woman, in a post-911 world.
