The Tribe
(Miroslav Slaboshpitsky, 2014) · Serhiy (Grigoriy Fesenko) is new to the school, but is quickly submerged into its claustrophobic world of organized crime. Here, the combination of prostitution, robbery, and good old-fashioned overzealous teenage desires form a volatile concoction in one of the strangest and most devastating releases this year. Entirely in Ukranian sign language, and lacking subtitles, The Tribe is contemporary evidence of the potency of the visual language of cinema.
