An explosive story of urban decay and disenfranchised youth, the film follows three young men - a Jew, an African and an Arab - as they roam the outskirts of Paris. Antagonized by police and taking stock of their place in the world, the trio considers taking action, the idea spurred by the discovery of a pistol. The film draws inspiration from Boyz n the Hood and Do the Right Thing, but stands out as a brutal and gripping example of contemporary French cinema.
The event will take place on Thursday, February 19 at 7pm in Park Auditorium and a brief, informal discussion with the audience will follow the screening. Admission is free and open to all members of the IC community!
