French No-Go-Zone: How the Suburbs Became Dangerous Ghettos

This documentary goes inside the troubled suburbs of France, the banlieues built to house working families and immigrants that have since become bywords for poverty and unrest. It examines how neglect, unemployment, and mistrust between residents and the state hardened over decades into no-go reputations. Talking to the people who actually live there, it separates the headlines from daily reality. Balanced and probing, it is a grounded look at one of France's most divisive social questions.
