Unsupervised Lesson 19 December

Today you are focusing on the themes of La Haine.  You need to read the article below (including the comments made by other people at the end) and complete the Theme Task sheet.  Use your own knowledge and ideas about the film but you can also research a bit on the internet and read other parts of your La Haine booklet.
