A Wolf at the Door (2013) - 100 min

Country: Brazil
Director: Fernando Coimbra
Cast: Leandra Leal, Milhem Cortaz, Fabiula Nascimento, Juliano Cazarré & Thalita Carauta.
Sylvia arrives at school to pick up her daughter and discovers that her daughter has been picked up by an unknown woman. Police start questioning Slyvia and her husband Bernardo. Bernardo confesses about his secret affair with Rosa and he thinks, she might be the one behind this kidnapping.
You can call this movie a darker version of Prisoners Hollywood movie. Most of the intense scenes were long take shot and the kidnapping scene was the best of it. Fernando Coimbra nicely executed the triangle love story and covers all the bases of terrible relationships. The movie really belongs to Leandra Leal, the way she transforms her character is extremely impressive, I would say. Overall, it's a disturbing tale of obsession with some stunning scenes that can make a strong impact on the viewer.
Verdict: Good
