The Birthday Riots #[nn]

This collection presents the complete narrative of The Birthday Riots, a graphic novel originally published in 2005 by La Boîte à Bulles. The story explores the social and political tensions surrounding a series of real-life youth uprisings in France, focusing on the events that erupted during the 2005 birthday celebrations of a suburban teenager. Through a blend of documentary-style reporting and personal drama, the book examines themes of marginalization, police violence, and the explosive consequences of systemic neglect in the banlieues.
