In Lars Von Trier's experimental Dogville, fugitive Grace (Nicole Kidman) arrives in the isolated township of Dogville pleading that she is on the run from a team of gangsters and desperately need their help. The kindly Tom (Paul Bettany), a self-appointed town spokesman encourages the little community to hide her and in return, Grace agrees to work for them. Initial suspicion turns to trust as the townsfolk realise that they need her. An excellent cast act out Von Trier's melodrama on a minimalistic wooden sound stage set.
