Benjamin

2019 · 38 min

A sombre, talky crime drama that simmers with family resentment and quiet menace rather than action.

Genres
Crime, Thriller, Drama
Overview
BENJAMIN follows a handful of characters (all criminals of varying degree), but at it's core is about the strained relationship between two loan shark brothers who are dealing with their late father's death and the sole object he left behind for them in his will: a hundred dollar bill.
