CGiii Comment
Beautifully shot, intensely played...
It's a slow unraveling of cold cruelty pitched against the warmth of kindness...within the chaos of war.
The director takes his time...but, the climax seems a little rushed.
Definitely worth seeing...for the callous performance of the judge alone.
Chilling.
Trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
There is civil war in Finland. Between whites vs reds. A woman soldier of reds is captured by the whites. She is ordered to be executed.
