‘The Idiots' is Lars von Trier's only movie that strictly obeys the Dogme95 manifesto. It is artistically and structurally justified in calling itself an archetypal Dogme95 film. The director avoids any generic thematic pursuits and shuns all forms of technical enhancements used in Hollywood cinema. Instead, ‘The Idiots' presents us with a visually minimalistic, thematically unclassified story about a group of people who live together in a large house, under the leadership of a fellow

“‘My Children are black. They don’t look like your children. They know that they are black, and we want it recognized. It’s a positive difference, an interesting difference, and a comfortable natural difference. At least it could be so, if you teachers learned to value difference more.

My Reflection
To begin, I’d just like to say that for this class, as a team, I realized that we are interestingly a mix of tactical and creative. As much as we have a clear cut goal (objectives of the class), we are expected to be creative when we need to think outside of the box, such as making recommendations.

How could people become so utterly in love with such an odd type of writing? What was the point of learning about the different structures of haikus and sonnets? All I knew was how difficult the poetry section of my English class was going to be.
