The movie lays bare deep rifts in French society as violent police officers, drug dealers and Islamists pull the children of Montfermeil’s housing projects in different directions.

Montfermeil is famous as the setting of Victor Hugo’s 19th-century novel, from which the film takes its name.

Another French-language film in contention is “Atlantics” from Senegal, a supernatural tale about African migrants who decide their only future lies in Europe, and those they leave behind.
