Throughout the movie Crash the director Patrick Haggis shows a lot of examples of the racial tension that occurs in our society.

CRASH August 19‚ 2013 The movie crash has some many different bad situations. I choose this movie because it has at least ten different stories and all to me are for the same reason.

The film “crash” is an ensemble drama film that’s a collision of self-concepts‚ of prejudices. It’s about racial and social tensions.
