Watch Beauty and the Dogs For Free

Absolutely brilliant

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

This film had broad international production support including several European countries. Filmed and storied out of Tunisia it's message has broad application to all countries where power and authority bullies & threatens individual rights even so far as terrorizing their citizens. We have institutionalized political & religious brutality in this film as a female college student attending a school party encounters the police. Her quest for justice is hampered by being a liberal female in a conservative country. Kafkaesque, but is there still hope? Despite the verbal/physical battering by police her resoluteness grows, but again perhaps too late. Intelligently written & directed, but it's the acting (often non-verbal) by Mariam Al Ferjan that engages & captures your attention, and worthy of an award.

The unbearable story of a young Tunisian woman who is raped by some policemen before she goes to complain to the nearest police station. Useless to say that this fight is lost in advance. How could it be else in a country where women are considered after the camel? This a real painful but so realistic tale. I heard some people in the audience be very uncomfortable, groaning. I myself felt dizzy. A true masterpiece worth seeing at all cost.
