Teacher Lazhar’s wife is a teacher. She was intimidated and retaliated for writing a book criticizing the “National Reconciliation” policy implemented in 2004 and opposing the amnesty for some criminals. In fact, Algeria was in civil war throughout the 1990s, and various terrorist activities occurred frequently. The motivation for issuing the "National Reconciliation" policy is to restore domestic peace and stability.
Teacher Martine was misunderstood because of Simon's lie, and finally chose to hang himself in the classroom.
No matter what motive the teacher Martine chose to end her life in the classroom, it did hurt her students, especially Simon. He should never forget it in his life, even though he always pretended to be indifferent afterwards. Look like.
When this incident happened, the school immediately re-brushed the classroom and arranged a psychologist to try to make the students forget the incident as soon as possible, as if it had never happened before.
But have you really forgotten all those Algerian wars in the 90s? Don’t ask why Mr. Martin hangs himself, doesn’t care about the harm to the child, but just asks to forget it? What Mr. Lazhar’s wife and little girl Alice asked for was an explanation, which was the cause of the violence, to really face the violence, not just avoid blindly.
It is precisely because of this that Mr. Lazhar begged the principal to finish the last lesson. He did not want to leave suddenly like Mr. Martine, without explanation.
