🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Daniel Mann constructs a sharp political drama that relies on the compelling clash between a naive idealist and a cynical political machine. The film explores the high cost of integrity within a system built on compromise, using strong performances to drive its narrative.
What lingers after the final reel is a sobering reflection on the personal toll of fighting corruption from within. — MovieFinder Editorial
