Synopsis

The beautiful fugitive, Grace, arrives in the isolated township of Dogville on the run from a team of gangsters. With some encouragement from Tom, the self-appointed town spokesman, the little community agrees to hide her and in return, Grace agrees to work for them. However, when a search sets in, the people of Dogville demand a better deal in exchange for the risk of harbouring poor Grace and she learns the hard way that in this town, goodness is relative. But Grace has a secret and it is a dangerous one. Dogville may regret it ever began to bare its teeth...

    his/her review : Superbe film une fois que l'on transcende le décor et les stéréotypes et que l'on arrive à rentrer dans le film. Le film est très dur et choquant à regarder mais le message que Lars von Trier veut faire passer est transcendant et s'adresse à tous. Un film fort mais il faut faire l'effort de rentrer dans le film, ce n'est pas un film hollywoodien à 2 balles.

    his/her review : This is more a play then a movie thus if you expect a movie in the classical sence you will be disapointed. The play is not bad qua characters, however the storyline is a bit longish to my taste but the essence of the play is universal namely the human condition.

    his/her review : Lars is geniaal, geen twijfel mogelijk. Decor valt helemaal niet weg, is practig gemaakt. Alles wat onschuldig of dode materie is, zie je niet (let op de hond, baby en doden op het einde), alles wat schuldig is, loopt rond. Inhoudelijk helemaal uit het leven gegrepen. Ben er helemaal weg van.
