1942. Occupied Norway. Teachers must join the Nazi
Teachers’ League and teach Nazi ideas in their
classrooms. 8,000 of them write protest letters. They
are threatened with salary withdrawal and the sack.
Still, they refuse. In a desperate attempt to break them,
the Nazi government arrests 1000 male teachers and
sends them to prison camps, 300 miles above the Arctic
Circle. The education system is in chaos and now the
battle begins.
Jon Seal’s documentary weaves together archive
footage, first-hand testimony and the skillful animation
of Herlov Amland’s poignant drawings to tell this
gripping story to an international audience for the first
time. The Teacher’s Protest is a sad, tender and
uplifting documentary exploring a completely different
kind of war story – an inspiring tale of passive
resistance, where the heroes fight without weapons
and still win.
