A retired teacher embarks on a mission to find out what became of a beloved student
As a teacher for mostly disadvantaged teens in Harlem, Zee Pacifici coaxed poetry from her students in the form of rap lyrics. Now retired at age 86, she takes comfort in mementos from her time in education, including photos from her classroom and books of her students’ writings. This short film follows Zee as she attempts to track down one of her favourite students.
