The Penguin Lessons

A whimsical and heartwarming true story, THE PENGUIN LESSONS joyfully excels in finding humor during a politically charged time. Propelled by the deliciously dry wit of Oscar nominee Steve Coogan and inspired by true events, THE PENGUIN LESSONS follows an Englishman’s personal and political awakening during a period of crisis. In 1976, Tom (Coogan) lands in Buenos Aires to take up a teaching position at a prestigious English boarding school. The city is in the midst of political violence, but the headmaster (Oscar nominee Jonathan Pryce) insists his school simply keep calm and carry on, but when a coup d’état shuts down the school, Tom hops next door to Uruguay to party. A walk along the beach leads to a penguin drenched in oil from a spill. Against his better judgment, Tom rescues the bird, and thus begins a strange and beautiful friendship. Helmed by Peter Cattaneo (THE FULL MONTY), THE PENGUIN LESSONS delivers this delightful tale with wit, warmth and subtle insight into just how rewarding it can be to do the right thing.DramaPT1H52MPG-132025-03-28
