Description:
The film adopts a cinema-verite style that immerses viewers in the investigation of a young girl's tragic death in a remote village. Presented as an authentic investigation rather than a fictional narrative, the movie brings a sense of immediacy and realism to the proceedings. An inspector and his police team arrive to unravel the mystery surrounding the girl's drowning, only to discover that her death was not an accident but a horrific act of sexual assault and violence.As each villager is interviewed, their testimony is presented in close-up, allowing audiences to read their emotions and body language. However, as the investigation progresses, it becomes increasingly clear that the tight-knit community is reluctant to share the whole truth about the tragedy, raising questions about their complicity or knowledge of the crime. The inspector's determination to uncover the entire story is met with a wall of silence from the villagers, leaving the audience to question whether the truth will ever come to light. This compelling mystery film not only explores the darkest aspects of human nature but also highlights society's capacity for denial and indifference in the face of evil.
