About

A French high school class travels to Naples and Pompeii before graduation, where teacher Madame Mercier leads a week-long trip.

La Gradiva is a coming-of-age drama. In the final weeks of the school year, Latin teacher Madame Mercier takes her French high school class on a week-long trip to Naples and Pompeii, shortly before graduation. Most of the students come from diverse working-class backgrounds and have never left France. Among them are Toni (Colas Quignard), Suzanne (Suzanne Gerin), James (Mitia Capellier-Audat) and Angela (Hadya Fofana). Amid the ancient ruins, the teenagers deal with anxiety and excitement as they approach their high school graduation.
