Further cementing his place as one of the UK’s boldest and most distinctive independent filmmakers, Simon Rumley’s latest is an unflinching meditation on faith, grief, and vengeance. When their daughter disappears in suburban Bangkok, a pastor and his wife are dragged into a nightmarish search that tests the limits of their belief. A visceral and tightly wound thrill ride, this is a tense watch, fraught with moral ambiguity and punctuated with moments of brutal violence, both emotional and physical, culminating in a final act of savagery that will linger long in the memory. An unforgettable film.
