FRONTLINE/World

France: Soundtrack to a Riot

Special | 18m 13s

A rap of protest from the ghetto.

In this Rough Cut, producer Camille Servan-Schreiber and reporter Marco Werman go to Paris to talk to a multitude of rappers -- some successful, some rapping in their living rooms -- to find out what lay at the heart of last year's riots and how this anger has been expressed in today's rap rebellion.
