Anna Karenina, confined to a stage

In Dogville, the 2003 Danish drama starring Nicole Kidman as a woman on the run from the mob, director Lars Von Trier decided to tell his story with the barest of sets and scenery. Instead of a mining town's streets and buildings and mountains, he used exposed plywood facades and white painted outlines marked on a giant hangar's floor. Minimalism, so nothing distracts from the raw emotion at play.
