Emotions must be sorted out in time

In the process of integrating immigrants into a civilized society, the government and society are the dominant forces. The government and society have not exercised this power and feel that the status quo is good, but hatred and contradictions have been accumulating. An accidental incident (the three protagonists' good friends were injured by the police) caused this hidden emotion to erupt under the water, causing the conflict to form a social event.

What do the police do when they feel angry? For example, after three people went to Snoopy's house, Shayi and the black brother were abused by two police officers.

What do immigrants do when they are angry? After Vincent and a few friends drove out of the gym, a friend of ten years didn't invite them into his house, and a buddy shot him.

When social hooligans come across people on the roof who spit at them, they think of fucking them.

An "adult" in the toilet came out and told several young people the story of how to poop on the Siberian train. Except for one person, everyone else had the habit of pooping after the train stopped. In the end, the buddy froze to death when he got out of the car and didn't catch the train. The short old man described the process of his driving in detail.

In fact, there is no difference between shit and hatred, it is the most primitive need and emotion. If this emotion doesn't stop and pull like shit, it will bury itself in the end. Vinson's ending illustrates this.

The three protagonists can be said to represent the balance between the two attitudes. Vincent has always wanted to express his anger. The black buddies are very rational and have always opposed Vincent. Shayi is also a bystander and a contradiction adjuster.

When immigrants first arrived, they also wanted to be like the cows in the movie, giving their own labor to achieve happiness, but prejudice hindered a process. Every time a conflict arises, a civilized society uses the police and other violent institutions to suppress the conflict. again and again. The last small incident sparked a riot that could not be saved. Because the three protagonists cannot drive even if they steal the car and turn it on; there is no way for their anger to be vented, and no way to resolve their conflicts.

Just like Shayi closed her eyes helplessly in the end. There has never been a centrist.

Why embody this anger with young people?

Because they are the most unscrupulous and most likely to express this anger.

The anger should be resolved in time, otherwise the next time it comes, it will be more violent and cruel and even bloody sacrifice.

La Haine quotes

  • Vinz: It's about a society on its way down. And as it falls,it keeps telling itself: "So far so good... So far so good... So far so good." It's not how you fall that matters. It's how you land.

  • Hubert: Icing a pig will get you respect?

    Vinz: At least it'll even the score.
