The Penguin Lessons
Movie • 2024 • Biography
ReportThe Penguin Lessons is the true story of a disillusioned Englishman who went to work in a school in Argentina in 1976. Expecting an easy ride, he discovered instead a complicated and divided nation – and a class of practically unteachable young boys. When he finds a small penguin washed up on an oil-slicked beach, his life is turned upside down – and the penguin becomes not only a valued friend, but also a teacher of life’s most important lessons, for Tom, the boys and many others.

A very sad thing happens near the end but the actual end is framed as positive. Character literally says that he is happy he is sad.
