Except for the dogshit twist at the end, when it is revealed that:
spoiler
The initial murder was perpetrated by a white supremacist group that dressed up in police uniforms and posted the video of the killing online with the deliberate intention of starting a race war. You know, because the actual police being systemically racist is too out there.
Way to maintain the spoiler tag 😂. Yeah, that's what happens. The movie could be interpreted as vaguely lefty up until that point, but that cements it as centrist drivel, its messaging boils down to "noooo, the actual nazis win if poor POC and police fight, we must rally under the national flag one and all and defend civilised, polite France instead of playing into their hands and fighting one another".
It's a very apropos movie for the moment tbh
