CRASH

Crash tells the story of people from wildly disparate walks of life as they collide and intersect with one another. Each life is in some way personally affected, changed,or victimized by racism. They’re also all in some way guilty of racism themselves. There is no one without spot. A racist cop molests a black couple, only later to risk his life to save a black woman; an honest cop protects a black man from discrimination only to later discriminate against someone himself. No one leaves the film unscathed. 

It's a very intense and provoking film. The dialogues are full of weight when characters discuss heavy topics like poverty, race and other things.  Two young black men carjack a well dressed white couple and discuss racism around them. A Hispanic man struggles to find safety for his young family, a Persian immigrant turned US citizen buys a gun to protect his frequently robbed store, a white DA plays the race card to win elections. The conversations each group of characters and indeed the characters themselves connect through coincidence, feeding one into another.

It’s the sort of film you wish you could force everyone to see, maybe if enought people sees it , then the world could be a better place to live.
