Pariah
Written and Directed by Dee Rees.
I’m still in awe how Dee Rees
achieves this likelihood. Pariah it’s in every way the representation of a
community, right? But the things in common with every other community present
in every different line throughout the entire story are remarkable. It becomes
even a bit predictable in the sense that you know these stories, not in a
negative way. But it’s still a very thoughtful story, detailed and in the end
it gives you hope.
So, why do mothers on a sudden rage
beat their daughters when they tell them they’re gay? There should be a film
about their perspective. That film probably exists already. Oh wait, Prayers
for Bobby is that film. But it’s not enough for me. There should be more films like this one, period!
