When a beautiful young Grace (Nicole Kidman) arrives in the isolated township of Dogville, the small community agrees to hide her from a gang of ruthless gangsters, and, in return, Grave agrees to do odd jobs for the townspeople. But as the search for her intensifies, they demand a much better deal. What they don't know is that Grace has a dangerous secret, and their quiet little town will never be the same.

Ratings and reviews

If you're sick of the typical film, and want to see something More..just see this. Dont want to spoil anything ..give it 15m and you'll be into it.

Truly, a one of a kind movie. Nicole Kidman is the definition of grace. She will steal your heart and then break it to bits. Her performance is worth the grueling experience of watching the layers get peeled off, scene after scene. It's not for the faint of heart but if you stick with this one, It is impossibly rewarding. It's a ferocious piece of filmmaking with a shredding SHREDDING lead performance. The Bowie song at the end is sheer perfection. Lars von Trier nailed this one. All hail Kidman!

Apart from what I found to be a poor third act, this film is amazing. LvT successfully creates a stage like atmosphere for quite the interesting narrative. I highly recommend it.
