Red Road
An Academy Award winner for her short film Wasp, writer-director Andrea
Arnold`s first full-length feature - completed under Lars von Trier`s `Advance
Party` concept - is an astonishingly powerful drama from a major new talent.
Jackie (Kate Dickie) works as a CCTV operator in Glasgow. Each day she watches
over a small part of the world, protecting the people living their lives under
her gaze. One day a man appears on her monitor, whom she thought she would never
see again, whom she never wanted to see again. Now that she has no choice, she
is compelled to confront him.
A deeply heartfelt work that deservedly garnered Arnold the Prix du Jury prize
at Cannes, Red Road offers a timely and poignant observation on the CCTV
environment in which we live. An undeniably raw but beautifully observed account
of tragedy, grief and atonement, the performances from Dickie, Curran, Compston
(Sweet Sixteen) and Press (My Summer of Love) are faultless.
