5/10
England is not paradise
3 February 2019
Warning: Spoilers
This film starts as a quite realistic piece about refugees in Paris and how live becomes shaped by crime and poverty. But the last minutes of the film spoiled it for me. When the family finally arrive in London. Everything is fine. They live in a fine house, no more poverty und no crime. I mean seriously. This is London with the second highest murder rate in the EU (after Brussels) mostly involving people with no English origin (as victims and offenders). Refugees are forced to work below the minimum wages and to live in abendoned industrial sites. Where from time to time get burned because of no fire regulations. Even the officiel buildings for accommodation are not safe. Remember the burning skyscraper? They still do not know how many people died there. So England is a different country but the same s... So what the the message of this: Go to England so France has not to deal with refugees?
