Storyline

A secondary school in any Spanish city. In a hallway, the tutor talks to Fatima, one of her students. So far so normal. But Fatima is Muslim and wants to take her head wrapped with the mandatory ritual religion scarf required for women in her religion. Even so, the tutor (in view of the prevailing rules of behavior for public education) insists that it should be removed if she wants to access to the classroom. The dilemma is served.
