The Elementary School
Obecná škola
1991 · Film · 100 min
Directed by Jan Svěrák
The time is 1945-46. 10 year old Eda and his friend Tonda live in a small village outside Prague. In school, their class is so wild and indisciplined that their teacher quits and is replaced by the militant Igor Hnidzo. He is very strict – but also very fair. His weakness though, is his interest in young women.

In great Czech movie "Obecna skola" (The elementary school, 1991) principal warns students over PA not to lick metal railings in winter and of course students try it and get stuck. He complains about it to a new teacher who responds "Students are young, they want to try everything". Principal then asks "are you telling me, if I say - Don't drink sulphuric acid, it will burn your intestines - that they will drink it?" And the teacher says: "I don't know, but better not say anything over PA".
