Overview

Shot entirely in sign language and without any subtitles, Myroslav Slaboshpytskiy’s debut film The Tribe is a visceral cinematic experience which relies entirely on body language to document a Lord of the Flies-type gang of kids living on the streets of Kiev. Rolling Stone magazine called it 2015's most intense film.

It’s a total mould-breaker, which is ironic considering it’s also an absolutely nostalgic trip back to the days of silent movies.
