Shot entirely in black and white, three friends - Vinz ( Vincent Cassel), Saïd ( Saïd Taghmaoui), and Hubert (Hubert Koundé) - wander the streets of the Parisian suburbs after a violent riot. Parents need to know that La Haine is a superb but very violent French drama (with English subtitles) that shines a light on societal issues including police brutality, immigration, and racism.
