Crash

Crash (2004) is a drama directed by Paul Haggis. This film is a meditation on racial tension in modern day Los Angeles through interweaving stories in which the prejudices and misunderstandings of the different characters crash to create an explosive, volatile cinematic narrative and commentary. Crash makes good use of sharp cutting dialogues and haunting ethnic music to summon the pain of human fallibility and vulnerability. This film has multiple climaxes which make each overlapping  subplots somewhat unique yet identifiable.
