Den Affen töten is a raw documentary that sheds light on the gritty underbelly of Dortmund Central Station. Britta Wandaogo's direction immerses you into a world often overlooked, capturing the pulse of the junkie scene with a stark realism. The pacing is deliberately slow, allowing moments of tension to build, creating an atmosphere that feels both claustrophobic and haunting. It's not flashy or overproduced; instead, the practical effects of life on the streets are unsettlingly authentic. The performances, largely unscripted, lend an air of truth that can be startling. This film stands out because it doesn't shy away from the uncomfortable but rather embraces it, making you confront the realities of addiction and despair.
