This movie is really well done. It's an intense and gripping crime drama with a really strong dramatic narrative thread. The characters and their motives are somewhat puzzling especially the Marcello's, his decisions don't make much sense but Marcello Fonte's performance makes it believable that he's a guy who lets his heart lead the way more than his brain. While the film presents an interesting premise that's well constructed during the first two acts, the film loses its way somewhat in the final 20 minutes, with the script searching for an unusual and plausible way of bringing the story to a conclusion. It touches on themes like conflict, trust and betrayal. The cinematography is very good, as it captures the bleakness, colorless and depressing vibe of the local town.
Overall, this is a good character study of what bullying can do when the bullied person has had enough. The performances are strong, the technical aspects are all terrific.
