l have to write

an essay on my ancestors.

Want to see the last slave

in the family?

What?

Meet Gran Pa Doutau,

born in 1831 .

Can l keep it? l'll be careful.

You? Careful?

Since when are you careful?

Please. l'll get a good grade.

Good grade!

All right. Now go set the table.

Good grade!

"Service suspended"... Sh*t!

Hey, l know you!

Don't you play for Redstar?

l used to. Why?

l saw you play last year.

This is Daouda.

He's from a rivaI project.

All the projects are enemies

and no one ever knows why.

Where're you headin'?

The Pink Project but there's no bus.

They beat up another driver?

Yeah, l guess.

We'll drive you.

F*** that.

- What?

- Pain in the ass.

Don't get pissy.

We drop him off, it's on our way.

- C'mon, get in.

- You're sure? Thanks.

Let's split.

Get comfortable.

- You're saving my life.

- Hey, we're all brothers!

Find me a CD.

- You want sound?

- Yeah.

Feel like singin'?

Nah,

l just wanna listen to some music.

l'll find you somethin'.

What've we got?

Tell us.

Aznavour!

Yeah, Aznavour's good.

You know Aznavour?

You bet.

Yeah? So sing some.

- You want me to sing Aznavour?

- Yeah.

Ok, just a quick one then.

Here we go...

Love is a gypsy's chiId

It has never known a Iaw

Love me not, then l Iove you

If l Iove you,

you'd best beware, bro!

What a tard!

What?

He sings that!

That's not Aznavour, it's an opera!

You listen to opera, d*ckhead?

Yeah, l listen to it.

No kiddin'?

He's right.

That's from Carmen by Bizet.

Carmen by Bizet.

Don't get all intellectual

on my ass, man!

Carmen by Bizet, he said!

Sh*t...

Take a hit, it'll wake you up.

No thanks.

Take a hit!

lt won't waste you.

lt will. Take a right.

The way this kid talks!

You hear that?

What is this sh*t?

That's how you talk to us?

We drive you, offer you a toke

and you give us orders?

You're giving me a ride

or getting me high?

Chill, ok.

Two for the price of one,

what more do you want?

Ungrateful jerk...

Back in the day...

Police! Freeze!

Get outta the car!

Your hands on your head!

- l lost him.

- No kidding?

You slipped?

Stop squirming.

Sit down and shut your mouth.

Listen up, it's simple.

Finger your pals

or take the rap.

l don't know them.

Spare me the spiel.

Auto theft is 5 years minimum.

l didn't steal anything.

l study law, l can't have a record.

Spare us the model student act.

Just give us the names

and quit protecting your pals!

l want to see my lawyer.

Don't piss me off!

Move your ass, you'll see a lawyer!

The cops' raid had changed

the stakes in the project.

And Narcisse was going to step in.

Manu, you're taking Burner's turf.

Hold on, l said l didn't agree!

This is democracy.

The hell it is!

Anyhow, that's not why we're here.

Gypsy won't supply us now.

What do we do? Lay low?

F*** him, we don't need him.

He could ice us

for sidesteppin' him.

He wants us to stop sellin'

for 3 weeks.

How do we get

the customers back after that?

- l don't drop my pants.

- Hold on...

Just chill, man.

The cops did a raid

just last week, ok!

Gypsy's right.

We wait till it all blows over.

C'mon, they got their dealer.

They met their targets, ok.

We need to sell, right?

lf there's cash to make,

count me in.

Cash makes the rules.

We'll make a bomb

without that sh*t Gypsy!

Right, you make dough,

that gives you wings?

Gypsy's not playin' the same game.

He's a Mafioso.

His Yugos will slice you up.

You're way behind the times, man.

Know what? You're a gang of losers.

Go ahead, deal with Gypsy.

When he carves up your family,

don't call me!

l have no family.

So go for it. l'm outta here.

Chill, Wrecker!

Know what?

Keep off my turf

or l'll f*** you over!

Hey, Wrecker!

Call by at home later.

Sh*t personality...

That jerk can be a real drag.

Got a way to get the goods?

l need to find one.

Guys, this is wild!

He jacks this rig

and then finds a baby in it.

He's stuck with it.

This is one awesome movie!

Why's the kid here?

lt's cool, l told him to come over.

Come here.

Go get me a battery for my car

at the mall.

Now leg it and fast!

A Iookout in the project

is the dealers' lackey.

Isma hated that.

Who do they take me for?

Their gofer?

"Coo, look at these hands.

"They oughta be picking gold

off the streets.'

My car!

Did he steal a car or what?

Your cousin's really screwing up.

And look who with.

No license either.

l know, but what can l do?

Djibril could've heIped

but he had other probIems

to deaI with.

lt's crazy. l had to explain

the guy's job to him.

lt's incredible.

He holds you over 16 hours

and questions you without a lawyer.

Unbelievable!

Yeah, l know.

lt's an abuse of power.

Did he read you your rights?

Baby, are you ok?

Yeah, l'm ok.

l'm over here.

l got here as soon as l could.

l'll take care of you now.

No, l have to go to my mom's.

l'll see you later.

l can drop you. l have a helmet.

No, it's ok. l'll walk.

You're sure?

So you wanna play, huh?

Come on then!

Say hello to my little friend here.

You liked that?

Here we go again!

What's going on?

What's this?

What's this crap you bring home?

lt's a pal's.

Your pal doesn't take it home

but you do?

Are you that dumb?

Don't bring this crap home again,

ok?

Djibril?

Please, don't tell Mom.

Coming.

Toe the line then.

I was stiII dreaming

of kissing Ocane.

I'd have done anything.

Even something dumb.

Hey, you! l'm talkin' to you!

- Do l know you?

- Shut up. Gimme your bag!

- No!

- Hand it over!

Let go!

Let go of it! You crazy or what?

Let go of her!

Stay out of this, bro, ok?

Let go, l said!

What is this?

You just slapped me!

That wasn't planned.

l thought

this was supposed to be easy.

You suck, man.

And you owe me 10 euros.

Goddamn giraffe!

You're such a jerk.

That's 10 seconds of echo!

The first verse, l said.

Echo on the first verse.

Trust me, that much echo

will screw up the bass line.

Who's fundin' this?

Quit hasslin

and gimme the damn bass line.

Try these.

They're way phat.

A bit too small.

Too small? What's your size?

Seven.

These are 6 and half, ltalian.

You take one size less.

ltalian?

They're from Marrakech, man.

And they're ugly.

l like them.

Hey, let him decide.

Don't call 'em shoes.

You can't wear those things.

What's the price like?

We'll see later.

He's buyin' them?

They should be free!

Shut your mouths,

you goddam sewer rats!

We're workin' here.

Chill, Daouda.

Put the boxes away, ok!

Wassup, Jo the Taxi?

Try wearin' a pair of flip-flops,

they'll help you relax.

Wassup? Watcha doin'?

You're dumpin' me in the sh*t, man.

No, l don't decide,

it's not my call.

Tell me, how long d'you need?

What? A month?

Are you crazy?

l'm not gonna wait a month!

What do l do with my 3kg?

Listen up...

Listen up, motherf***er,

you son of a b*tch whore!

l'm screwed! Forget you know me!

Any deal we had is off!

We're through!

Only Mandingos never meet up.

When l find you,

l'll eat your balls, shithead!
