Editorial Reviews

DOGORA was born of two vying forces that created an emotional explosion in Oscar® nominated writer/director Patrice Leconte (THE HAIRDRESSER'S HUSBAND): A musical urge written in an imaginary language, "The Dogorian" and a visual urge, inspired by images, faces, landscapes magnified with the vital force of Cambodia. The marriage of these two emotions, delivers a a film without a narrative, actors or plot. DOGORA follows in the footsteps of the hugely-popular, visually-splendid BARAKA and is now re-mastered in stunning High Definition and presented on DVD for the first time ever in America

4.0 out of 5 stars May be Lecone's most personal film yet!, May 27, 2010

This review is from: Dogora [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)

If you're a fan of Leconte or "Qatsi" films I can't recommend this enough. Academy award nominated filmmaker Patrice Leconte, mostly known for his wonderful RIDICULE & HAIRDRESSER'S HUSBAND, now travels to Cambodia to create a wonderful, spiritual symphony of sound, image and movement of a hidden land and its people. From the crowded city streets to rural villages (including the stunning extended panning shot through river-side town), Leconte paints an expert portrait of the beauty in hidden archaic life. Please release the amazing soundtrack by Étienne Perruchon!

The pairing of European orchestral music, especially the climactic superimposition of the choral singers on the tourist images of Cambodia, creates a stunning impression that the director is making a heavy-handed political statement or is out-of-touch and does not look at the world other than via cliches.
