A patient, formally daring work — the cinematography lingers on empty rooms longer than most audiences will tolerate, but those who stay are rewarded with the most haunting final act of the year.
Mysterious murders on the border. Always the same crime scene. The perpetrator lurks on a hill, protected by tall grass. He hunts families. But on this day things are different. A child survives. Traumatized. Months later, an attempt is made to return the child to the crime scene as part of confrontation therapy and the story takes its course.

I walked in expecting another genre exercise and walked out feeling like I'd been eavesdropping on a confession. The lead performance is genuinely singular — a career-defining turn.

A few too many scenes feel borrowed from a better film, but the soundtrack and the production design carry the rest. Solid recommendation for fans of slow-burn European thrillers.
