 Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A 2008 French film ("Entre les Murs" in the original, meaning "Between the Walls"). The character of the protagonist is largely based on the experiences of the French and literature teacher François Bégaudeau in a school in an arrondissement of Paris. It shows his struggles with the often difficult but also very likeable and interesting kids. Bégaudeau himself plays the role of the teacher M. Marin. It's also almost like watching a documentary, it feels as if you're actually peeking into the classroom.The film won the Palme d'Or at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival, as well as some other awards and making it into many top 10 of 2008 lists.

 Big Game: Averted. Unlike many films about education (especially in the US), there is no high-stakes test (Stand and Deliver), dance contest (Take the Lead), karate tournament (The Karate Kid), or other goal for the students to work toward under their teacher's wise guidance in order to overcome their humble origins and society's prejudices. Instead, it's just another school year.

 Berserk Button: Esmeralda remains a distant snarker for most of the class until Francois calls her a skank.

 Determinator: Francois is determined not only to educate his students, but to discover what gets his students to tick and from that want to learn more from their class.

 Asian and Nerdy: Wei does particularly well at math and works hard to improve his weaker subjects. His parents are concerned that he is pushing himself too far.
