Wow! Movies really are an art form!! An adult theme that takes you out of your comfort zone. The exemplary director and cast use restraint and simplicity of technique to paradoxically reveal the complexity of human nature -- to devastating effect.

Excellent film, terrific performances by the entire cast, and you'll almost be kept in suspense for the duration. The film is shot is several long sequences, which is highly effective for the most part. I gave it four starts instead of five because some of the scenes are a few minutes too long and get boring.

Not giving much away, I'd like to say i would never remain anyone's friend after dealing w/ someone like Dragut. Please rent this movie and you'll probably agree!
