CH4 - Teachers Training to Kill (2019)
In a remote training camp in Butler County, Ohio, we meet school teachers who are learning how to shoot and, if necessary, kill. This documentary explores the heated and divisive debate around how best to protect pupils, as schools prepare for gun attacks and school boards in America seriously consider arming their teachers. The film follows a group of teachers who attend 'Faster', one of America's most controversial summer schools, where teachers are trained to use guns, deal with potential school shooting scenarios and, if the situation demands it, kill. Included is the Trump-supporting local sheriff, who is so passionate about arming teachers that he puts billboards up in town to persuade the community to get onside.
