World Cinema/Masterpiece: A French black-and-white crime drama about how three teenagers spend the 24hr aftermath of a local riot trying to avoid the police.
Three friends in the slums of Paris discuss the death of a friend in the riot over the previous night during which a police officer misplaced his gun.
When a young Arab is arrested and beaten unconscious by police, a riot erupts in the notoriously violent suburbs outside of Paris. Three of the victim’s peers, Vinz (Vincent Cassel), Said (Said Taghmaoui) and Hubert (Hubert Koundé), wander aimlessly about their home turf in the aftermath of the violence as they try to come to grips with their outrage over the brutal incident. After one of the men finds a police officer’s discarded weapon, their night seems poised to take a bleak turn.
