Camping à la ferme –à la ferme In National 7 (Uneasy Riders) , director Sinapi explored the world of the disabled and won the London Film Festival FIPRESCI Prize "for the playful way in which it challenges taboos surrounding disability, sexuality and religion with warmth and humour, never lapsing into cliché or sentimentality." The film also won the audience awards at the Berlin and San Sebastian Festivals. Now the director tackles another tricky subject: multiculturalism. Two extremes of French society - delinquents raised in concrete housing projects and small-minded farmers living off the land (and European Union subsidies) - are thrown together to comic and subtly educational effect… there's something ultimately touching about this school of fish-out-of-water ensembler. …from a script by sociologist Azouz Begag (who has since been] named French Minister for Social Equality)… A sample of the characters and the conflict: The kid of Italian descent who's a convert to Islam ends up repairing the church bell tower;… two stoners assigned to make a soccer field out of waist-high weeds introduce one key local to their kind of weed. When racism rears its head, it is not benign - [the] script handles the tension with tact and imagination. - Variety
