Monday Double: La Haine + Frances Ha

These modern, monochrome classics capture what it feels like to search for your place in a city that keeps moving without you.

La Haine | MA 15+

In the aftermath of a violent riot in the suburbs of Paris, three young men—Vinz, Saïd and Hubert—wander through the streets of their marginalised neighbourhood, struggling with anger, frustration and uncertainty. Over the course of 24 hours, tensions simmer as they confront police brutality, social inequality and a future that seems increasingly hopeless.

French language with English subtitles.

15 minute intermission.
