Rosetta (Blu-ray)

WINNER OF THE GOLDEN PALM – BEST FILM – CANNES FILM FESTIVAL

In the Dardenne brothers' multi-award-winning film (including the Palme d'Or and the award for Best Actress at Cannes), we meet teenager Rosetta (Émilie Dequenne). She is looking for a job and a way out of the dead-end existence that life with an alcoholic mother in a squalid trailer park entails. But her social heritage and unfortunate circumstances drive her closer and closer to a final desperate act. It does not try to be liked or make an effort to portray Rosetta as colorful, charming, or sympathetic. It is a film based on economic determinism, the story of a young woman whose happiness lies in getting a job. At least, that's what she believes until she gets hired and doesn't become happier, perhaps simply because she never learned what that means." – Roger Ebert

"It seems more moving, challenging, and exceptional every time I see it."

– Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian   

"The most powerful film experience of the past year, Hollywood explosions and special effects included."nbsp;– Jonathan Rosenbaum, The Chicago Reader
