The British Film Institute will reissue on Blu-ray Mathieu Kassovitz's La Haine (1995), starring Vincent Cassel, Hubert Koundé, Saïd Taghmaoui, Abdel Ahmed Ghili, and Benoît Magimel. The two-disc set is scheduled to arrive on the market on November 21.
Label description: The film takes place over 24 hours following the police shooting of a young man from a deprived housing estate, and shows the world through the eyes of three friends – one North African, one Jewish and one black – who are frustrated with politicians, the media and police brutality. Black and white visuals, a thumping hip-hop soundtrack and graffiti-daubed streets underscore the urgency and rebellion at the heart of this game-changing classic.
