A crime drama of a different breed. Very subdued and methodical, but also narratively simple. The pace is slow and there is a strong attention to character. Having less plot and more story gives us time to examine the people and their situations. At first, a few different elements are introduced that seem like individual sub-plots coinciding in the main character's life. Over time the strands form a whole and the individual tensions become one. We come to know the people in the film on a personal level, so when a crucial reveal happens it means much more emotionally. It's one build up to an ultra-satifying finale. Superb writing, directing, and acting.
