Australian Premiere
In a working-class neighbourhood of Nice, a pillar of the local Georgian diaspora is murdered. His son, who aspires to become an orthodox priest, finds himself alone and caring for his grieving mother. When his troubled older brother reappears looking to make amends, the two men are drawn into a murky criminal underworld as they look to avenge their father and heal the broken bonds of their family.
Director Akaki Popkhandze has crafted an electrifying and propulsive debut feature that uses the conventions of the crime genre to explore family, faith and community. Anchoring the film are excellent performances from Nicolas Duvauchelle and Florent Hill as two brothers who find common ground in their starkly different moral codes.
