In "Monsieur Lazhar," the eponymous Bachir Lazhar has the ideal temperament to be a teacher. A reserved man who holds respect and courtesy as almost sacred ideas, he adores children (though not in a creepy way) and values knowledge and learning. Lazhar shows up at a Montreal school a week or so after a horrendous event: A popular teacher has committed suicide, hanging herself in her classroom while the children are at recess. One can only fathom the mind of a person who could commit such a gruesome act with the obvious intention that her students discover her that way.
