Description

Turn the animated short Mr. Indifferent into a complete Level 2 French Movie Talk listening lesson about kindness, helping others, and personal change. This ready-to-use French comprehensible input resource includes a teacher script, pre- and post-viewing worksheets, comprehension questions, a running dictation activity, the video link, and an answer key.

Mr. Indifferent isn’t a villain—he simply doesn’t care about anyone around him. He ignores a woman trying to catch an elevator and steps aside as a shopping cart rolls down the sidewalk. But when an older woman unexpectedly forces him to notice other people, his behavior begins to change.

What causes Mr. Indifferent to change his ways? What can his story teach students about kindness and helping others?
