Synopsis

As anger and resentment grow in the face of social inequalities, many citizens-led protests are being repressed with an ever-increasing violence. Monopoly of Violence gathers a panel of citizens to confront their views on the social order and the legitimacy of the use of force by the State.

MUBI's take

A visceral response to the wave of protests that ripples throughout France, David Dufresne’s razor-sharp documentary fiercely probes the roots of social unrest. Shaped around an impressive archive of raw phone footage, this unvarnished look at state brutality is nothing short of essential viewing.
