...a gripping experience, tense and upsetting, showing how seemingly small events, perhaps manageable in the particulars, can balloon into something out of control, like a fire exploding into a conflagration.

Wildly entertaining and often really intense. I didn't like the ending, but everything that came before it felt raw and authentic.

What is Les Misérables about? Toggle content

Inspired by the 2005 Parisian riots, LES MISÉRABLES is a crime drama that follows a police officer named Stéphane Ruiz as he joins the local anti-crime squad in the impoverished suburb of Montfermeil. Stéphane quickly discovers the tensions between the different gangs and law enforcement in the area, as his two colleagues Chris and Gwada use questionable methods to maintain order. During an arrest, a drone films their actions, putting them in a precarious situation. As they search for the drone's owner, they become embroiled in a community-wide confrontation that threatens to spiral out of control. With a cast featuring Damien Bonnard, Alexis Manenti, Djebril Zonga, and Issa Perica, LES MISÉRABLES offers a gripping portrayal of the complexities of urban life and the challenges faced by those seeking justice.
