NIGHTMARE AT SCHOOL - TRAILER

http://www.nfb.ca/nightmare

Fear of being made fun of, fear of authority, fear of making a mistake or being late. Who hasn't experienced the emotions of the hero of Nightmare at School? Even when you're big you sometimes feel tiny and inadequate faced with a duty, or when you've lost your bearings.

Fast-paced and with symbolism recalling Alice in Wonderland, M.C. Escher's fascinating world and Chuck Jones' playful visual jokes, Catherine Arcand's film plunges us into the torments of a pupil terrified of giving a class presentation on his favourite subject: chemistry.

Nightmare at School takes us inside a weird place and shows us a child at first debilitated by anxiety, then hopeful and brave with the help of his peers.

Rich sets, fluid and expressive animation, humour, suspense: a beguiling portrait of fear.
