GOING SOMEWHERE



French multiculturality is one of the biggest open questions inside this country’s society. Marseille school is the backdrop for ”The Class” and it is a volatile backdrop, with every possible nationality and race imaginable involved.

Although there is no plot in the classical term, the script is invigorated by the destructive dialogues between 15-year olds and their teacher that tries to maintain control over them. All the major issues of these kinds of society’s sub-units are tackled: racism, nationalism, local-patriotism, poverty, inclusion and harassment.

”The Class” is more of a documentary than a ”classical” long-feature film, and a good one as well.
