Stand Up, Teacher! The film's characters are some pupils involved in the reform of the educational system of Latvia and their home tutor Talivaldis Margevics who is also a script writer and film director.

Children with prolonged health problems- society knows very little or nothing about their existence. They are not to be found in hospitals, but at homes, whatever they are like.

In most cases, for several years, the only contact with the society and the world outside for these children is a teacher, appointed by the local municipality, who visits and teaches them at home.

His and his pupils' life stories, intewoven in quite an unusual way, can make one start thinking about the society integration problems, which are so popular in Latvia at the moment, and also about the values similar to all humankind. The film touches upon cross-ethnical relations and educational reform.
