Comme un aimant (released in the USA as The Magnet) is a 2000 French film by Kamel Saleh and Akhenaton. It depicts eight young people living in the district of Panier, in Marseille. It stars Akhenaton, Saleh, Brahim Aimad, Freeman, Houari Djerir, Kamel Ferrat, Titoff and Sofiane Madjid Mammeri. The film's name means 'like a magnet', and is a reference to a line in the film accusing two characters of being lazy and 'sitting there with your asses stuck to that bench like a magnet'. The film's title is also a song by IAM, a French hip hop band from Marseille which Akhenaton and Freeman, two of the actors, belong to.
The film's soundtrack is written by Bruno Coulais and Akhenaton, and it includes songs by IAM, Millie Jackson, Isaac Hayes and Cunnie Williams.
