Monsieur Lazhar (2011)
At a Montreal elementary school, a teacher dies tragically, leaving the students and staff in a state of shock. Bachir Lazhar, an Algerian immigrant, is hastily hired as her replacement. While the school attempts to return to normalcy, Monsieur Lazhar brings a unique and gentle perspective to the classroom. He quietly helps the children, particularly two deeply affected students, grapple with their grief and guilt. Meanwhile, he is dealing with his own painful past and seeks asylum, creating a parallel narrative of loss and the search for a new beginning.
