My Teacher Who Doesn't Know How to Read is a raw exploration of disillusionment in a school setting. Director Perry Escaño crafts a heavy atmosphere, where innocence is shattered and children grapple with profound issues. The pacing is deliberate, almost languid at times, allowing you to really sit with the gravity of the narrative. The performances by the child actors are striking; they embody a fragile mix of fear and bravado that feels hauntingly real. This film dives deep into themes of abandonment and the loss of guidance. What stands out is its use of practical effects to juxtapose the innocent imagery of school life with the harsh reality of their circumstances, a stark contrast that hits hard. It’s not your typical coming-of-age story, that's for sure.
