In the longstanding tradition of such inspirational films as "To Sir, with Love" and "Stand and Deliver," "Monsieur Lazhar" is yet another proud entry in the long legacy of films about educators. However, unlike the aforementioned films, "Monsieur Lazhar" is not centered around a classroom rife with violence and low test scores but rather a group of children grieving the recent suicide of their beloved teacher. In the wake of her untimely death enters new teacher Bashir Lazhar, whose experience is questionable at best but whose passion is immeasurable.
