Winner of three prestigious awards at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, including the top critics prize, The Tribe is a breathtaking experiment in film making that breaks boundaries with its audacious risk taking. This is a film without words. All the actors are deaf and use sign language to communicate, but there are no subtitles. When you watch you will understand. Set in a boarding school for the hearing impaired, we follow Sergey, a new student who almost immediately falls in with the bad crowd. Idly attending classes by day, we watch as teenaged gangs roam the night committing crimes and running a makeshift prostitution ring at a nearby truck stop. The longer Sergey participates, the deeper he falls into the corruption that permeates the school and the futile life there. A story that could be considered conventional unfolds like a cinematic puzzle, each scene building onto the next creating a dramatic mosaic that is affecting, shocking, and ultimately devastating. A Northwest premiere, The Tribe is a feat of modern cinema that must be experienced.
