Teach'er

Jason and Vanessa are two theatre school students who want to be famous actors. When they learn that only one of them will be awarded a prestigious acting apprenticeship, a competition for their professor's approval begins that will force them to reject their own moral values and realize that dignity has no place in art.

Directed by Cody Campanale, Teach'er leans on a strong ensemble — Catherine Martel, Robert Nolan, Cameron Rufelds — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2011.
