CGiii Comment

Tomboy falls for her liberal teacher and becomes an absolute horror...

Slow and wholly unpleasant.

Aziza likes to linger - stretching scenes out to such an extent that a crippling sleep will swamp you in next to no time.

The kid is completely unlikeable...you will feel nothing. Surely, that was not the intention?!?
