Havoc
In 'Havoc', Anne Hathaway plays Allison, an affluent girl from Los Angeles’ wealthy Pacific Palisades suburb who, bored with her safe suburban existence, becomes increasingly fascinated with street lifestyle and hip-hop culture. Joined by her best friend Emily (Bijou Phillips), the two girls are inspired to imitate the “gangsta” lifestyle, but they soon run into trouble when they befriend an East LA gang led by Hector (Freddy Rodriguez). Allison finds herself emotionally and romantically drawn to Hector, even though it is increasingly clear that their worlds will never be compatible. As Allison and Emily’s lives of luxury and privilege spiral into a dark storm of violence and desperation, the girls quickly learn that even innocent actions can have serious consequences.
