'Alice' Doesn't Live Here Anymore
'Alice' is a genre trifecta: one part revenge drama, one part historical account, one part throwback to Blaxploitation—kinda 'Django' meets 'Roots' meets 'Foxy Brown.'
Forever Mine
In a world where only the abuser and the abused exist, suffering and torture are the only outcomes amid the silent cries. 10 year-old Minnie, kidnapped six years ago, is not the only victim. The kidnapper Ha abducts little girls for their youth and immaculate skin in order to create his “masterpiece”. After six years, spared her life, Minnie is all obedience to Ha, even wishing to be part of the sadistic killer’s tour de force. Unfortunately, she is not the perfect collection for him. To Minnie, Ha has become her lifeline, shelter and everything. When the line between the perpetrator and victim blurs, who takes ownership and control over the destiny of the other?
