Saw this at Bermuda Film Festival. Wasp really was one of the most affecting films I've ever seen. It's power to control the audience - almost like a Hitchcock classic. Taking you to the edge then pulling back - don't want to give the story away.
I thought DOG was brilliant, but this film is a lot more subtle. It follows the story of a woman who is on the verge of loosing her children. She wants to maintain her life style although she lacks the resources to do it. The audience were very quiet as we see her stark life unfold in harsh terms. The interaction with the wasp and the child got an audible gasp from the viewers who were on the edge of their seats. Some people even left the cinema. I've never seen a film which captures the plight of people who don't have any choice in life. Don't miss this one - it's a classic.
