Reviews

A beautifully cryptic slow burner that lingers long in the senses.

Ty Burr, Boston Globe

Wave your lighters in the air. This bleak movie is one of the year's best.

Charlotte O'Sullivan, London Evening Standard

...a dark, devastating mystery that offers up so many subtle clues that it's hard not to turn to your neighbour and start whispering theories.

Jack Blackwell, One Room With A View
