 想要順順利利走過年輕歲月,其實並不是一件容易的事。如果你是黑人、拉丁美洲人、阿拉伯人、或是亞洲人,生活在蒙特婁市,而且年輕,那就更不容易了。你很可能平白無故就給當成罪犯,受到不平等待遇。本片揭露了人性中的種族偏見是多麼的根深蒂固,難以拔除。片中的一方是住在蒙特婁市的少年,另一方是警察,兩者分屬於兩個截然不同的世界,觀點也迥然迴異。少年屬於少數族裔,警察則握有實權。少數族裔的少年得以發聲的機會微乎其微,警察則掌握生殺大權。
倘若警察以打擊犯罪作為藉口,實際上卻是看少數族裔不順眼,故意找碴,那麼維護治安和個人自由之間的微妙平衡就可能給打破。本片揉合真實電影與個人證言,風格獨特,衝擊強烈,看了能讓您開闊胸襟,改變想法。

  Being young is tough, especially if you're Black, Latino, Arab or Asian. In a city like Montreal, you can get targeted and treated as a criminal for no good reason. Zero Tolerance reveals how deep seated prejudice can be. On one side are the city's young people, and on the other, its police force. Two worlds, two visions. Yet one of these groups is a minority, while the other wields real power. One has no voice, while the other makes life-and-death decisions.
 When a policy of zero tolerance to crime masks an intolerance to young people of colour, the delicate balance between order and personal freedom is upset. A blend of cinéma vérité and personal testimonies, this hard-hitting film will broaden your mind and change your way of thinking. In French with English sub-titles.
