Country: Australia
Director: Cate Shortland
Cast: Teresa Palmer, Max Riemelt, Matthias Habich & Lucie Aron.
Clare, a photographer from Australia meets a German teacher, Andi while exploring the streets of Berlin. After their physical encounter, Clare finds herself locked in the apartment and the windows were reinforced.
Adapted from Melanie Joosten's 2011 novel of the same name, it tells the story of a woman who constantly search for an opportunity to break free. Teresa Palmer does an excellent job in swinging the normal nature of her character into a sexual material for survival. Like any other sociopath, Riemelt also shows the same mannerism which is not likeable at all. Cate Shortland creates the claustrophobic ambience of being held as a hostage by providing enough moments to satisfy. The music by Bryony Marks works perfectly on each scene. Overall, it's not a sensational movie, but definitely a terrifying story to watch.
Verdict: Good
