2004 · 90 min

A somber, talky retelling that asks you to see a familiar story from the inside, with quiet tension and a heavy sense of doom.

How it feels: Earnest, melancholic, tense and dark. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Betrayal, faith, politics, friendship
Content: Mild violence. No gore, sexual content or swearing.
