Rating: Q=6, P=5 / Average OJ
Scale 1=3, Scale 2=3, Scale 3=3, Scale 4=2

Teaching, Suicide, Grief, Cultural Difference

A moving piece about how important friendship and stability is, for children and adults. Sometimes we forget that children can help adults cope, too. Monsieur Lazhar is quiet, subtle, and a reminder that we all deal with tragedy in different ways but what is most important is kindness and respect.
