    2025 · Drama

    In 1937, at the height of Stalin's purge, a newly qualified Soviet prosecutor reads a letter smuggled out by a prisoner, goes to see the man, and sets off for Moscow to report what he was shown. Slow and formal: prison offices, a train, a lot of waiting.

    Strange accidents happen to people in a north German village in the year before the First World War, and nobody is ever caught. Black and white, and it does not resolve.

  • 2012 · Crime

    Two men rob a mob card game and a fixer is brought in to settle it, in a New Orleans with election coverage on every television. Talky, slow and very sour.
