Plot.

Favoriten is one of the most culturally diverse neighborhoods in Vienna and the starting point of Ruth Beckermann’s latest documentary, in which she accompanies a class of pupils from the age of seven to ten. Their ambitious teacher, Ilkay, is determined to create an inclusive, supportive and safe environment for the kids. The majority of children don’t speak German at home, some families are wounded by war experience and many face discrimination. Despite few resources from the educational system, Ilkay gently navigates her class through daily adventures, defeats and victories. The result is an astonishingly cheerful portrait of a small community mirroring the complexities of contemporary European society. The film is an ode to childhood, celebrating the work of educators and lifelong learning in and outside the classroom.

Wiki.

Favoriten is a 2024 Austrian documentary film, named after Vienna's tenth district in which the action is set, directed by Ruth Beckermann. It is a film about teaching and learning in what some consider the equivalent of an inner-city school in Austria's largest city in response to recent migrations. It is a hopeful movie, with often surprising experiences oscillating between the roles of learner and teacher. The central theme revolves around a class of 25 elementary students whose engaged teacher is doing what is in her might to create chances for her students that they otherwise, for a lack of education in the parental home and a lack of school-institutional support alike, would not have.

Favoriten had its world premiere on 16 February 2024 in the Encounters at the 74th Berlin International Film Festival. It was also nominated for the Berlinale Documentary Film Award.
