A very good movie

To be honest, I thought it took a while to take off but I guess it was maybe due to the fact that I didn't know anything about this movie or its plot before watching it. At least, right from the start, I have to admit that I was by taken its esthetic beauty thanks to a beautiful black and white photography. In fact, he did remind me of the work of Ingmar Bergman, not only with the black and white imagery, but also for its sober and minimalist look, removing any artificial effects and focusing more on the harrowing emotions experienced by the characters. Still, at last, at some point, it became pretty obvious what it was all about and, from then on, it became basically the worst nightmare for anyone who is a parent. It shows how devastating such an event can be, obviously for the parents, but also for the rest of the family and even for the perpetrator. For some reason, I was especially touched by the emotions displayed by his friend who spent 10 years thinking about his buddy when he was himself only 8 years old when it all happened. Anyway, to conclude, it was basically one of those emotionally draining features, you watch them once, they hit you like a truck and I'm not sure I will ever re-watch it again but it was definitely a really strong drama and it is absolutely worth a look.
