"Almost experimental in how much it oscillates between a social comedy and hybrid crime-thriller, Teacher in a Bikini is a film with countless likeable and accurately portrayed characters. It allows us to get to know an astonishing collection of actors, as well as a new directorial sensibility. Lyèce Boukhitine is a bittersweet actor-director who knows how to alternate fictional situations (the "world of crime") and depressing social reality (temporary jobs) without it interrupting the flow of a film" (G. Tion). "What interested me was making a blend of genres, of making the spectator in turn moved, amused and intrigued by the lives of these characters. Their friendship is conditioned by their childhood, and they don't escape it. They have the characteristic that one finds in families: they've always known each other but never open their hearts. Their relationship is based on inaction when, all of a sudden, they find themselves plunged into a world that forces them to act" (L. Boukhitine).
