   A chilling, disturbing and scary Kafkaesque story (allegedly based on a true story). Astonished it is not on any lists 3 years 11 months ago

   Siskoid

   Beauty and the Dogs (the French title, "La belle et la meute" has a better consonance, "meute" means "dog PACK", in Arabic, I don't know) provides a harrowing night for its Tunisian heroine as she is raped one evening, and spends the next 12 hours, more or less, trying to get justice. The system is already gamed against her, but even worse is that policemen did the deed. Between a bureaucratically disinterested health service and antagonistic, corrupt cops, the details are Tunisia's, but it's hard to imagine things going much better in any other country under those circumstances. Mariam Al Ferjani is strong in the exhausting role, and the sense of naturalistic dread created by director Kaouther Ben Hania as palpable as the events are frustrating. The short time frame also leaves you with ambiguity as to what happens next. Things cannot be resolved, and there's no card to alleviate your anxiety. Instead, it ends on a "Based on a true story" notice that does anything but. 1 year ago
