Conducta (2014)

Chala is eleven years old. He lives alone with his drug-addicted mother and trains fighting dogs to earn money. This violent environment sometimes spills over into school. Carmela is his sixth-grade teacher, and the boy has great respect for her. But when Carmela falls ill and is forced to leave the classroom for several months, a new teacher, unable to handle Chala’s temperament, transfers him to a school for students with behavioral problems. When Carmela returns, she opposes this decision and other changes that have taken place in her class. The bond between the veteran teacher and the boy grows stronger, but her commitment will put both of their places at the school at risk.
