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.
The film story of an old mountaineer from Zázrivá, takes place on the eve of Christmas Eve. Július Pántik stars in the lead role of the television film based on the short story of the same name by L. Nádaši - Jégé. It is a story about belonging and a deeply rooted sense of responsibility of an ordinary person.

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.
