Synopsis
A political discussion between a teacher and a 17-year-old student turns into an emotional conflict that bursts far out of the classroom. In a fight over justice, both Amir and Lian, won’t give in, even when things spin out of control and take a devastating toll that will change their lives forever.

Note from the artistic direction
The Lesson addresses a strong societal issue, where speech manipulation and social media are as dangerous as weapons of mass destruction. Carried by a most accurate performance, the series shows the complexity of debating serious matters in the 2.0 era. Gripping.
