Damage
An erotic melancholic drama concerns the obsessive sexual relationship between an English politician and his son's lover. "Damaged people are dangerous. They know they can survive." are they?
Dancer in The Dark

The dreams of poor immigrant is not like this of rich American however, even this simple, decent, and justified dream is not permitted for this woman. She spends her life working very hard to collect money for the treatment of her boy but finds herself accused of murder of first degree. Her crime was to dream where she should not do! she was really dancing in the dark time that we live. Amazing this concern about immigrants that Lars Von Trier has, in breaking the waves a stranger comes to the calm village and marry a girl there, in dancer in the dark and Dogvile an immigrant abused ruthlessly... I know exactly how does it feel! 

Death Watch (La Mort En Direct)

 intelligent, calm, realistic and dramatic presentation of life. Romy schneider was so good in this role that I cannot imagine any one may try to play it again!

Deep Crimson

A darkly comic drama of love and murder based on a true story, the film goes on fluently with continuous yet delicious suspension.

It is good to notice that South American film industry is as good as and in many times better than Hollywood but marketing is much less effective.
The deer hunter

"one shot", he said. This is the theme of the film. How life can be irreversibly changed by war. Brilliant film in handling the war and its associated traumas. Imagine how does the Iraqi feel after three wars in less than 25 years let alone revolutions, uprisings and coup d etat?

Divine intervention

What happens in Palestine is not covered by the media. Here is a good film that shows the Palestinians and Israelis as they are in a silent tough conflict where love and hate takes place.

Djomah

The Afghani problem is presented from another angle in the eyes of a young decent man who fled Afghanistan to live in Iran. He is full of life and romantic ideas that do not fit in a small village.

Dogville

Lars von Trier tackles the problem of immigrants again. After his wonderful film "Dancer in the dark", he gets som inspiration from the "return of the old lady" to revenge and make a huge ending scenes where fire swallow the whole village.

Other films: The Dreamers, Dying young, Don Giovani, Desperat measures ...
