In Montreal, an elementary school teacher hangs herself. Bashir Lazhar, an Algerian immigrant, then offers his services to replace her, claiming to have taught in his home country. Desperate to fill the position, the principal takes him at his word and gives him the job. He gets to know his students despite the cultural gap evident from the very first day of class and despite his difficulty adapting to the school system's constraints. As the children try to move on from their former teacher's suicide, nobody at the school is aware of Bashir's painful past, or his precarious status as a refugee. His wife, who was a teacher and writer, died along with the couple's daughter and son in an arson attack. The murderers were angered by her last book, in which she pointed a finger at those responsible for the country's reconciliation, which had led to the liberation of many perpetrators of huge crimes. The film goes on to explore Bashir's relationships with the students and faculty, and how the students come to grips with their former teacher's suicide. One student, Alice, writes an assignment on the death of their teacher, revealing the deep pain and confusion felt by each of the students.Directed by Simon GalieroGenres Drama,

Jean-Marc Phaneuf, un électronicien célibataire, se rend à Ujama, en Afrique, à titre de coopérant pour l'ONG « Radio du Monde ». Il découvre un pays accablé par la pauvreté, la famine, la guerre, la maladie et une scandaleuse inégalité sociale. Parallèlement, il y fait la rencontre d'un peuple joyeux, courageux, assoiffé de bonheur, de savoir et de dignité humaine. La caméra, qui lui sert de journal intime, lui permet également de dévoiler les rouages pour le moins douteux et inefficaces des ONG. Bien qu'elle mette en lumière certains efforts louables de la coopération internationale, l'investigation de Jean-Marc débouche irrémédiablement sur un constat terrible : l'aide humanitaire est une illusion, une utopie. Alors que ses idéaux finissent d'être anéantis à la suite d'une agression dont il est victime, Jean-Marc tombe sous l'emprise d'un amour qui s'avère impossible et qui le forcera à fuir l'Afrique en catastrophe. Cette finale laisse comprendre que Phaneuf participe à ce qu'il dénonce: un impérialisme bienveillant, symbolisé par ses désirs pédophiles. , 1h20
