In 2012, Gil Zabarsky and Chris Modoono debuted their narrative short TEACHER OF THE YEAR to audiences at the Tribeca Film Festival, which gained enough popularity to garner an option by Fox Digital Studio for a full-length feature.
Both Zabarsky and Modoono have completed the film and are set to bring it back to where it all started, debuting again at the Tribeca Film Festival.
"The story finds Zabarsky playing a foul-mouthed elementary school teacher who hits rock bottom when his wife leaves him. Forced to run the school play as punishment for his diminishing performance, Zabarsky uses the venue as a means to vent his frustration, unfolding before everyone's eyes.

Plot:
"TENURED, written by Gil Zabarksy and Chris Modoono and directed by Modoono, tells the story of Ethan Collins, a severely depressed, foul-mouthed elementary school teacher whose wife's recent departure has left him questioning his life and teaching his students that "mommies are liars." When he is put in charge of the school play as punishment for his bad performance, Ethan rewrites the script to be about his marital problems and puts on an unforgettable show for the parents, school board, and his soon to be ex-wife."
TENURED is opening at the Tribeca Film Festival which runs from April 15 - 26 in New York, USA.
