安立奎和罗莎两兄妹，春暖危地马拉人。二人为了躲避迫害，春暖从家乡逃往北方。他们怀揣着过上新生活的梦想，穿过墨西哥来到美国。这本是每天都会发生的故事，但在格雷戈里·纳瓦（Gregory Nava）这部划时代意义的《北方》之前，越境到美国的移民的个人痛苦，却从未以迫切需要的人道主义关怀 精神，呈现在电影里。本片是一部充满梦幻般影像的社会现实主义作品，是希望与幸存者的故事。《北方》饱含深情地表达了令人心碎的故事。影评家罗杰·伊伯特（Roger Ebert）称其为“我们这个时代《愤怒的葡萄》”。
回复 :新学期伊始，教师与学生们返回一所普通的社区学校。法语老师兼班主任的弗朗索瓦·马林（François Bégaudeau 饰）面对升一年级的新班级，继续用坦诚又有些好辩的方式教学，这群14岁左右的学生思维活跃，时常在宽松的课堂上反诘马林或是斗嘴、传播八卦，马林不得不一次次中断进度，解决无数琐碎的问题。这所学校内汇聚了来自多国的移民学生，随之而来的问题时常在课堂细节中体现，马林试图尽量让学生们找到自尊，但这些擅于让老师头疼的孩子似乎不太接受马林的说辞。课堂上的唇枪舌剑与部分学生敌视老师的态度让潜藏着的矛盾随时会爆发。本片获2008年戛纳金棕榈奖，由小说原著兼编剧的François Bégaudeau主演。

回复 :The setting is Vienna in 1914 before the outbreak of war. The aristocratic and somewhat jaded Prince Nicki, pursued by all the ladies, begins a flirtation with Mitzi, a crippled harpist who works in a suburban wine-garden, and who is in turn idolized by Schani, an uncouth and violently jealous butcher. Their first encounter significantly takes place in front of St. Stephen's Cathedral on Corpus Christi day, with Nicki among the emperor's cavalry regiment. Later, in the refracted light of falling apple blossoms in the wine-garden--scenes of a distilled, ethereal beauty--Nicki gradually wins her faith and love. Meanwhile, amidst the sumptuous and corrupt milieu of the family palace, Nicki is drawn into complicity against his will, as his unscrupulous mother informs him he must marry Cecelia, the daughter of a wealthy commoner, in order to revive the family fortune. Mitzi has a vision of The Iron Man (a symbol of the declining power and position of the Hapsburg dynasty) and falls before the crucifix in fear; but her love remains steadfast, and she protests her faith though abused by her mother and Schani. Infuriated by her rejection, Schani threatens to kill Nicki on his wedding day unless Mitzi agrees to marry him. Following the processional splendor of the cathedral wedding, Schani appears to carry out his threat, but Mitzi arrives in time to stop him; and through the downpouring rain Nicki sadly gazes on his true love in the crowd as he drives away with his bride.
