The Tribe (2014)

126 MINUTES, UKRAINE
DIRECTOR: MYROSLAV SLABOSHPYTKSYI
CAST: HRYHORIY FESENKO, YANA NOVIKOVA, ROSA BABIY, OLEKSANDR DSIADEVYCH

Sergei arrives at a boarding school for the deaf in small town Ukraine. He finds a world of cruelty and neglect. The underfed students turn to crime to survive, love briefly offers hope, but sets off a brutal chain reaction. The Tribe depicts youth, power and poverty on the margins. There is no dialogue or musical soundtrack. Viewers are forced to focus on the interactions between the characters. An extraordinarily ambitious first film, The Tribe is rich in imagery while the young actors are compelling. Though confronting in parts, it is a masterpiece of neo-realism in the tradition of De Sica.

Note: Sex scenes and violence.
