This film tells of a criminal investigation in which a college student is arrested and accused of killing a colleague, but he defends himself by accusing another student. It seems just another police movie, but it gradually turns out to be a deep psychological thriller with a very original story, addressing issues like psychopathy, necrophilia and mental communication between people. With a constantly tense and mysterious environment, for which the dense and misty cinematography contributes to a good extent, it keeps our attention easily, with the plot passing from one mystery to another almost without giving us answers. If there is something that quickly becomes evident is the dubiousness of the story behind that boys. Truth can have more than one face. The ending is amazing and equally open. Unfortunately, script is so mysterious and open that plot holes and unreliable situations are more abundant and glaring than sardines in a school. Eddie Redmayne, Tom Sturridge and Toni Collette are the stars who lead the cast and make a very positive performance, especially the boys.
