Somewhere in Ukraine, Sergey enters a specialized boarding school for the deaf. Alone in this new and unfamiliar place, he must find his way through the school's hierarchy. Sergey quickly encounters the tribe, a student gang dealing in crime and prostitution. After passing their hazing rituals and being inducted into the group, he takes part in several robberies and begins to work his way up the chain of command to become pimp-protector for two of the girls, who turn tricks at the local truck stop. Finding himself in love with one of the, Sergey ultimately breaks all the unwritten rules of the tribe, with tragic consequences. (forgalmazó hivatalos szövege)

Hats off for coming up with an idea to shoot a movie by such engaging means, where the spoken word gets swapped for sign language. It’s even more interesting that you get to see environments that you wouldn’t wish upon your worst enemy. The Tribe combines a really brutal psychological drama with an Eastern Bloc feel and an idea that’s worth watching. But the most interesting thing is that it really works here and there. Then again, it’s true that I was really sick of the long raw scenes and I almost fell asleep from boredom when they were on the screen. In any case, the idea definitely at least deserves your attention – if you’re a movie fan, that is.

A similar case as Stations of the Cross: a young creator, a radically different concept, a captivating design. Enchanting choreography of camera trajectories and sign language by deaf characters, silence transformed into the most intense sound of all, and precise work with familiar storytelling, which allows one to understand the sign language even where we do not know its exact meaning. An overwhelming finale that balances on the verge of exploitation, but thanks to the director's consistency, gives an uncompromising KO.
