The Penguin Lessons

The true story of a disillusioned English teacher who takes a job at a school in 1976 Argentina, expecting an easy path. Instead, he discovers a complex and divided nation, and a class of young people he considers virtually unteachable. However, when he rescues a baby penguin from an oil-polluted beach, his life is turned upside down. The bird becomes not only a valued friend, but also the teacher of the most important lessons in his life, those of his students, and all those lucky enough to know him.
