Beauty and the Dogs
An aggravating and heartbreakingly true to life representation of the justice system and treatment of female assault victims in society. Such a necessary watch, particularly for those who haven’t witnessed this aspect of modern reality first hand, as it’s carefully laced with accuracy despite not having the most atmospheric beauty. Harrowing to discuss and even more harrowing to endure, yet so needed.

the use of chapter divisions to fragment each relentless single take scene was an excellent rhetorical strategy to unite form with content in a harrowing way
