La Haine- practice question

How far does the impact of the films you have studied for this topic depend on distinctive uses of film techniques? 
[35]

One scene which depends on uses of film techniques is the scene which shows them in the mall as the news of Abdel's death. Camera techniques are important in this scene as it shows the friendship between the three characters and their reactions to the news of a friends death. A close up shot of the three of them looking past the camera, showing the three friends together, however we see the separation which is consistent throughout the film by the way that Hubert is separated from Vinz but instead leaning towards Saïd. By showing this in a close up we see the separation take place without them realizing, showing how they're not proud of what they had done and the attitude Vinz has towards those in power. Therefore Hubert who is represented as equality leans towards Saïd (fraternity) instead of Vinz (liberty).
