This is an amazing film. It touches on the impact of suicide on pupils of a teacher and also on fallout of specious accusations of child abuse. It is a memorable movie.
From NY Times review.
"“Monsieur Lazhar” sustains an exquisite balance between grown-up and
child’s-eye views of education, teacher-student relations and peer-group
interactions. The students come quirkily alive in superb naturalistic
performances devoid of cuteness and stereotyping. Like no other film
about middle school life that I can recall “Monsieur Lazhar” conveys the
intensity and the fragility of these classroom bonds and the mutual
trust they require." 2011 94 minutes
