La Haine (Hate) + Introduction (15)

Disenchanted young people voice their anger in Paris in the aftermath of a riot sparked by police brutality. Events over the course of one day are glimpsed from the perspectives of three men: a young Arab called Said, Jewish brawler Vinz and black boxer Hubert. Their fortunes become entwined on the streets of the banlieue where tensions are high and police are on high alert for more disturbances.

Re-release of Mathieu Kassovitz’s provocative 1995 black and white feature, charting the trials and tribulations of disenchanted young people in modern day Paris, as seen through the eyes of three men – Said, Vinz and Hubert – from different cultures and backgrounds.
