Teacher’s Pet follows a gifted high school senior (Torian) whose charismatic new teacher (Barnett) offers an escape from her turbulent life, but as the year progresses it quickly becomes apparent his help comes with a price.
Writer/Director Noam Kroll has made a name for himself as a leading voice in independent cinema and the DIY filmmaking movement. His podcast, “Show Don’t Tell” (top 3 in filmmaking), has featured interviews from filmmakers like Tom DeLonge (Blink 182), David F. Sandberg (Shazam!), Larry Kasanoff (Terminator 2) and hundreds more. Each month his inspirational filmmaking content reaches over 500,000 filmmakers across a variety of channels — including his acclaimed blog, podcast and newsletters. His first three features were shot on virtually no budget, making TEACHER’S PET his first feature film produced at a larger budget tier.
