Nominated for this year’s Best Foreign Language Film Oscar, this masterful classroom drama tells the story of a Montreal middle school class shaken by the death of their well-liked teacher. Bachir Lazhar (Mohamed Saïd Fellag), A 55-year-old Algerian immigrant who is hired as the substitute, helps the children heal while he learns to accept his own painful past. This profoundly affecting film has garnered many awards for its performances by Algerian star Fellag and the stunning ensemble of child actors.
