Review of The Tribe (2014) by Dave Calhoun for Time Out — 10 May 2015
The film must come with several warnings. It’s extremely disturbing at points (there’s a horrific backstreet abortion scene), and the silence itself—actually, the nonspeaking, atmospheric sound takes on a life of its own—is hard work, meaning that you have to let whole swathes of story wash over you.
But those same obstacles also give this strange story a deeply original, hallucinatory power.
