🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a tense, claustrophobic narrative that relies on the grim facts of the infamous hostage crisis. It explores the psychological erosion within the bank's walls, where fear breeds a dangerous and unexpected camaraderie.

What lingers after the credits is a profound unease about the human capacity for identification with one's captor. A chilling case study in survival psychology. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Håkan Lindhé
