Synopsis:
A Brentwood housewife and her DA husband. A Persian store owner.
Two police detectives who are also lovers. An African-American
television director and his wife. A Mexican locksmith. Two car-jackers.
A rookie cop. A middle-aged Korean couple…
They all live in Los Angeles. And during the next 36 hours, they
will all collide…
Challenging and thought-provoking,
Lions Gate Films’ CRASH takes a provocative, unflinching
look at the complexities of racial tolerance in contemporary America.
Diving headlong into the diverse melting pot of post-9/11 Los
Angeles, this compelling urban drama tracks the volatile intersections
of a multi-ethnic cast of characters’ struggles to overcome
their fears as they careen in and out of one another’s lives.
In the gray area between black and white, victim and aggressor,
there are no easy answers…
Funny, powerful, and always unpredictable,
CRASH boldly reminds us of the importance of tolerance as it ventures
beyond color lines…and uncovers the truth of our shared
humanity.
