Inspired by the 2005 riots in Paris, LES MISÉRABLES follows Stéphane, a recent transplant to the impoverished Paris suburb of Montfermeil, as he joins the local anti-crime squad. Working alongside his unscrupulous colleagues Chris and Gwada, Stéphane struggles to maintain order amidst the mounting tensions between local gangs. When an arrest turns unexpectedly violent, the three officers must reckon with the aftermath and keep the neighborhood from spiraling out of control.

LES MISÉRABLES was nominated for an Academy Award for Best International Film and the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, it won the Jury Prize at Cannes.
