With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, 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
- If you count yourself among crime fans and anyone who likes a story with emotional weight, this one's for you. One to watch when you can give it your full attention.
- The mood
- Dark and gritty.
- The pace
- Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 51 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1976: an older pace and style.
- Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.
Actress Sanaa Kamel is found murdered on her bed, and an investigation starts, taking into account everyone of the guests she hosted at her apartment the night she was killed: her jealous fiancé, a school instructor, a corrupt market manager, one of Sanaa's friends who works as a contractor, and a stud who was Sanaa's secret lover. As the investigation progresses, all the conclusions about the characters are always under question.
