It’s not easy being a housewife with four little devils and a husband that’s hardly ever there. When Jill can no longer bear to be a slave to her family, she decides the time has come to hang herself. As she dangles above the dinner table, her spirit somehow lives on. Reincarnated in a new canine body, she will ensure those who pushed her over the edge now live a dog’s life. In Bitch, Marianna Palka creates the provocative and surreal tale of a woman crushed by familial obligations. A great heir to the best absurdist artists, the director and main actor tackles the nightmare of family life with deep sensibility and a singular sense of pace. And with Jason Ritter (who reminds us of a certain Jim Carrey) portraying his character touchingly, Bitch impresses as the most daring film of the NIFFF 2017.
