Words can come back to haunt you.
That’s a message from “The Lesson,” one of the best shows to ever come out of Israel. The series has a no-nonsense attitude, with blistering acting that makes clear a classroom can be a battlefield where surrender doesn’t come easy, if at all.
The series, which premiered in Israel in 2022 and is now streaming on ChaiFlicks, is a showcase for the powerhouse performances of Doron Ben-David and Maya Landsman. Ben-David plays Amir, a divorced and financially struggling 43-year-old civics teacher. Landsman is Lian, a high school senior with low self-esteem.
