Anecdotes
Director Maïwenn's first idea for the title was "Police", but another film already had this name: none other than famous French director Maurice Pialat's film in 1985. Her next idea was, "Vous êtes de la police?", but it too was already a film title. One day, as her young child was learning to write, he misspelled "Police", and she saw in front of her eyes the perfect title considering the subject of her movie, with a child's writing: "Polisse".

Entertaining Docudrama

In Paris, the photographer Melissa (Maïwenn) is assigned by the Ministry of the Interior to document the daily activities of the BPM – the Police Division for Child Protection under the command of Chief Baloo (Frederic Pierrot).

Along the days, Melissa witnesses and takes photos of pedophiles, children and women abusers and abused and befriends the team of detectives, sharing their investigations along the working days and leaning how their jobs affect their private lives. Soon she has a love affair with the sensitive and emotive Detective Fred (Joeystarr).

"Polisse" is an entertaining French docudrama about a team of police officers responsible to protect children from abuses. The screenplay uses ellipsis and it seems that is based on true stories. It is good to see how the team works and their relationship outside the work, showing that the officers are human beings with families and problems affected by their work.

The weakest part is the character Melissa, with her touristic and unprofessional camera, and taking her glasses off and loosening her hair in a silly behavior. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): "Polissia" ("Polisse")
