Join us Friday July 25th at 6:00pm for a screening of La Haine (1996).
La Haine follows three young men and their time spent in their poor French suburb over the course of 24 hours. The men are Vinz, a young Jewish man with volatile temperament, Hubert, an Afro-French boxer who wants a better life for himself, and Saïd, a North African Muslim who acts as the mediator between the two others. The three grapple with poverty, boredom, hatred and the police as they go about their directionless daily routine. After local riots a man named Abdel Ichaha is gravely injured from interrogation in police custody. Events heat up as Vinz finds a policemen’s lost revolver and swears to K*ll a cop if Abdel dies.
