The Penguin Lessons 
The Penguin Lessons is a heartwarming adaptation of Tom Michell’s bestselling memoir.
Set in Argentina in 1976, the film follows English teacher Tom Michell (Steve Coogan) as he arrives at a prestigious boarding school, only to find himself struggling with a nation in turmoil and a class of unruly students. His life takes an unexpected turn when he rescues a small penguin from an oil-slicked beach. Naming it Juan Salvador, Tom soon realises the bird is more than just a pet – it becomes a source of wisdom and transformation for him and those around him, including the school’s headmaster, Buckle (Jonathan Pryce).
Directed by Peter Cattaneo (The Full Monty) and adapted by Jeff Pope (Philomena), The Penguin Lessons is a poignant tale of friendship, resilience, and the surprising ways we find hope in difficult times.
“As a whole, Cattaneo’s latest project is delightful and meaningful, showing the importance that a pet-owner relationship holds in the owner’s journey to healing.” Isabella Soares, Collider
