Synopsis
French attitudes toward their large Arab population are explored in this drama. Here a bus driver causes enormous trouble for an Arab passenger when he will not let him off the bus when he asks. The result of this obstinacy is an accident for which the Arab is blamed. During the trial these prejudices are discussed at some length.
