great film, would make anyone hate the imperialist fascist france. watching the film with knowledge of algerian genocide and banlieu uprisings of last couple years makes it much more infuriating.

You feel frustrated, but you think of your rice bowl, and decide to grit your teeth and bear it, calling it just another day, secretly longing for a time where you are empowered to do something about it.

All they're asking for was fair treatment, but all they got was discrimination.
