Everyone Has a Confession, Even the Teacher!
Charles hates French class with a passion, but finds the will to survive when he lays eyes on Justine. She is the reason he “tolerates” his boring class. However, his secret crush is compromised when his teacher decides to “shake things up a bit” in class. A simple writing assignment turns out to be a lethal injection to his social life and by extension his chances with Justine. First, his nosy teacher tries to “set him up with Justine,” and his plan immediately backfires. Then, the unthinkable happens and Charles is stunned. This turns into one of the most embarrassing moments in his life. Charles invites you to come along on this adventure into La classe des confessions (part 1) where everyone has a confession, even the teacher!
