The French Malian director follows up his 2019 Oscar-nominated 'Les Miserables' with a drama about clashes between a city's new mayor and the young president of a public housing project.
Ly knows how to stage scenes of visceral power, deftly moving between full-hearted flashes of community and taut, antagonistic ones laced with a dreadful foreboding.
In, his 2019 Cannes Jury Prize-winning and Oscar-nominated film, the helmer examined tensions between working-class residents and a French anti-crime unit. He harnessed the propulsive energy of thrillers and blended it with the insistent morals of a political drama. Frames of that film are imprinted in my memory, but it’s the final one, a haunting moment of defiance and pain, that is most lasting.
