An overlooked landmark of 70's American cinema, Barbara Loden's WANDA is a radical revisioning of the road movie genre. Writer-director Loden (wife of famed director Elia Kazan) stars as Wanda, a troubled young woman adrift in a modern-day industrial wasteland until she embarks on a crime spree with a small-time crook (Michael Higgins). Bracingly honest and beautifully shot, Loden's unique film deserves to be counted among the most formidable debuts in independent American cinema. (texto oficial do distribuidor)

This film definitely impresses with how realistically it is shot. It gradually gets under your skin because it is possible to identify with the heroine and the terrifying world she lives in. However, it's also possible to see the film as a certain pose and an attempt to show how difficult life is for the lower classes and what they resort to or are dragged into by their apathy. But I lean more towards the first option, which is grandiosely called cinéma vérité.
