Dogtooth DVD
A darkly comic, discomfiting and deliberately provocative work that draws parallels with recent contemporary events. Dogtooth is shocking, compelling and reversely erotic. In a house on the edge ofthe city live a self-contained family. The only person allowed to leave is the father. The mother remains enclosed, `protecting` her son and two daughters from the evils of the outside world. However, when the son reaches an age where is is deemed that his sexual needs should be met, this insular and radical environment is threatened by the arrival of a female security guard. Capturing incidents that range from the weird to the repulsive, Dogtooth presents a sharp and frequently startling look at modern life. Particularly evocative of the work of Michael Haneke this is cinema at its most bold and brilliant.
