Synopsis I got off the Internet: "A provocative, unflinching look at the complexities of racial conflict in America, CRASH is that rare cinematic event—a film that challenges audiences to question their own prejudices.
Diving headlong into the diverse melting pot of post-9/11 Los Angeles, this compelling urban drama tracks the volatile intersections of a multi-ethnic cast, examining fear and bigotry from multiple perspectives as characters careen in and out of one another’s lives. No one is safe in the battle zones of racial strife. And no one is immune to the simmering rage that sparks violence—and changes lives...
Funny, powerful, and always unpredictable, CRASH boldly explores the gray area between black and white, victim and aggressor…and finds no easy solutions."
Don't watch this movie if what you're after is relaxation or entertainment. Crash is all too realistically educational, insightful, prodding, and kicks-you-right-in-the-gut impactful. And to be honest, it's good to be kicked in the gut once in awhile.
