Police Beat is a highly unconventional crime film in which the protagonist Z is so preoccupied with his possibly unfaithful girlfriend that he never once acknowledges criminal world that swirls around him. The crimes Z encounters become mirrors of the his turbulent inner state, allowing him to philosophize about his unstable romantic relationship as well as his own development as an emotional being. While Z's regular interactions are in English, his thoughts the film's narration are in his native Wolof, the primary language of West Africa. In this way, Police Beat is an unusual portrait of an immigrant new to the United States that focuses less on the protagonist's socio-economic difficulties than on his emotional responses to American life.

Review :
Self-indulgent tripe. But the cinematography is beautiful!
Where to begin with this one? I grew up in Seattle and when I heard a locally produced film featuring Seattle's lush imagery was available, well... I'm here, right? More 'fartsy' than 'artsy' the writer/director/whoever's responsible decided story elements like actual character development, thematic narratives and, heck, even plot aren't needed. Instead, they offer up this self-indulgent mess of crap dialog, so-so acting and plain 'ol bad editing in lieu of anything relevant, entertaining or insightful.
Basically, if you lapped up "The Brown Bunny", you might enjoy this. But for most viewers it will quickly become an exercise in banal self-righteousness.
On the plus side, yes, the cinematography is quite stunning.
