Dir. Luc and Jean-Pierre Dardenne

Rating: [M]

Aroview: Drawing creative parallels with the Danish 'Dogma' movement, this is a rigidly intense study in survivalism that forsakes any plot contrivance to heighten the stark reality of an alienated (and alienating) 18-year-old girl reared in trailer-park France. A controversial winner of the 1999 Palme D'Or, less arguable is Emilie Dequenne's riveting performance that won her the Best Actress gong at Cannes.
