    Rosetta is a riveting look into the everyday existence of a strong willed teenage girl living in poverty with her alcoholic mother. To escape her dire economic situation she will do anything to get a job. Her basic desire is for a "normal life", which she equates with employment. The films is probably entirely shot with a hand held camera that at times can be disorientating, but it gives a documentary feel to the film and helps portray the desperation of the protagonist. While the film focuses on Rosetta's struggle for everyday survival, her problem is spiritual as well as economic. Her dire living conditions have stunted her emotional growth and ingrained into her psyche the belief that finding a job will solve her problems and allow her to live a normal life. Emilie Dequenne is nothing less than convincing as the determined teen. Her character is not likable nor is the audience asked to sympathize with her. It's an extremely bleak film that never strives for sentimentality.

    The Dardenne brothers are excellent! This film is nothing less than a little masterpiece. I was totally enchanted by the story, the photo and Émilie Dequenne who plays the maincharacter Rosetta. You really have to watch this film if you haven´t!
