Dog Poop Girl is a black comedy that tells the story of a clerk employed in a bank, whose life is entirely connected to social networks. The idea for the film started from a real event, which took place in South Korea in 2005.... OK!

A single woman and trusted bank employee, Alina is the average corporate worker, with a chaotic personal life but with just enough money to buy herself some sort of happiness. The apparent calm of her existence is shaken by the decision to adopt a stray dog which accidentally regurgitates food on the floor of a subway car.

That's why we non't have nice movies...

An excellent tragicomedy, more on the tragic side, presenting (sometimes in an almost surreal, caricature style) the intolerance of idiots in today's society. Marred by the impulsiveness and superficiality entertained by the so-called social media and the manipulative press, it is made up of a gallery of 'global village idiots' who feel entitled to an opinion on everything, especially to an extremely judgmental one, to the brink of verbal and physical abuse.

The acting is fine throughout and the film has a keen eye for significant details and minutiae, and also a refreshingly real feel (for its most part), even though it has actually no clear thread following the action, but a series of ever crueler perspectives triggered by the same incident. In a welcome, deeper addition to the real-life fact in South Korea that has inspired this film, the contrast between depressed loneliness and loud intolerance provides the emotional fuel that allows it to move forward.

If you want to see a multitude of clishee and worn out ideas of Romanian movies this is for you and by the way spoiler the dog dies big surprise no? This is a kitch movie, i was actually surprised hey didn't put a pot of sarmale at the table in the end but i was relieved when i saw the harassment scene out of nowhere before the credits roled, glad tahat they borrowed from films like "Filantropica" or "the death of mr Lazarescu" , this movie is a kitch and a sick parody of much better romanian movies before it . I was actually waiting for an abortion scene and a close capture of the bloody fetus to show us how seriuos this movie was but the clasical music at the and saved us.

With all the cancel culture we hear about in the news, this movie seems to be one of the few titles that takes the view of the commoner on the issue.

The film takes some artistic license and exaggerates some aspects of the common life in order to underline it's point. It may seem overdone if this is not your sense of humor. In the end it's a satire, a genre very difficult to pull off without offending or making it seem like preaching.

So what's the point of this movie? Hard to tell. Everybody will get something out of it. Nevertheless I think it's worth watching.

As a minus, at the end it ran out of steam.

A movie who reflect with high fidelity the intolerance who flageled the romanian society after the involution, the fall of communism , and the raise of sclavagist-capitalism where everybody is for himself.
