With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Best for people who can't resist a good whodunit and anyone drawn to the darker side of the street. The investigation drives everything, one lead at a time. Liked Evil Under the Sun or Laura? This is a good next one.
- The mood
- Tense, dark and gritty.
- The pace
- Gives its people room to develop, at 1 hr 45 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you like your heroes clean-cut.
One morning, the body of a sailor is found lying on the beach, washed in by the tide.. With no witnesses or any sign of the dead man’s boat, Inspector Leo Caldas begins immersing himself in the town’s seafaring atmosphere as he endeavours to shed light on the crime. He finds himself among men and women who prefer not to reveal their suspicions to him. But a sudden discovery sets him off in an unexpected direction.
