COOL
Director: Theo van Gogh
From notorious late director Theo van Gogh ('Interview'), a hip hop fuelled tale of disaffected Moroccan youth trying to get by in the mean streets of Amsterdam. After a botched robbery, five young delinquents are sent to the Glen Mills School, a tough, experimental reform school. Meanwhile, the streets outside still beckon them back to a life of crime. At a crossroads, they must now choose which path to take.
