Description

THE PENGUIN LESSONS

Starring Oscar nominee Steve Coogan, this poignant dramedy from director Peter Cattaneo (Military Wives) follows an Englishman’s personal and political awakening after he adopts a penguin during a cataclysmic period in Argentine history. The year is 1976. Tom (Coogan) lands in Buenos Aires to take up a teaching position at a prestigious English boarding school. The city is in the midst of political violence, but the headmaster (Oscar nominee Jonathan Pryce) insists his school simply keep calm and carry on. That suits Tom just fine. When a coup d’état shuts down the school, he hops next door to Uruguay to party. A romantic foray leads to a walk along the beach, which leads to the sight of a penguin drenched in oil from a spill. Against his better judgment, Tom rescues the bird, which unlocks its undying loyalty. He's forced to sneak the flightless beast back to Argentina, and thus begins a strange and beautiful friendship. (Spain, USA, Ireland, UK, 2024, 110 mins, PG-13, English & Spanish | Dir. Peter Cattaneo)
