Dogville (2003)

Dogville (2003) - A women takes refuge in a poverty-striken small town in the Rocky Mountains to escape gangsters who are hunting her. To stay in the town she must gain the towns people's trust, which she does easily, but the real struggle is to keep the conflicting morals and ideals of this desperate town at bay. Using a stage-like set where we are able to see all the goings on of the town at all times, Lars von Trier allows us to make our own decisions about the town of Dogville and its inhabitants reactions and decisions when facing adversity. By the end of the film when it is time for the final decision to be made all of your views or morality, tolerance, and forgiveness will be put to the test. Another brilliant film by von Trier.
