🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Gianni Amelio constructs the narrative like a court transcript, relying on documentary sources and avoiding melodrama. The director explores not the psychology of terrorism, but the decision-making mechanisms during a crisis, where every delay and every note carries weight.

Those who tire of simplistic political thrillers will find a rigorous, sobering examination of power. What lingers after is a profound unease about the machinery of the state. — MovieFinder Editorial
