The Birthday Riots

A single-issue French graphic novel from La Boîte à Bulles, The Birthday Riots presents a self-contained story set in a near-future where a controversial law triggers widespread civil unrest on the day of its enforcement. The narrative centers on a family caught in the chaos, exploring themes of societal breakdown and personal survival. While brief, the work stands as a pointed, politically charged snapshot from the mid-2000s European comics scene.
