Country: Poland
Director: Agnieszka Holland
Cast: Agnieszka Mandat, Jakub Gierszał, Katarzyna Herman, Andrzej Grabowski, Tomasz Kot & Borys Szyc.
Janina Duszejko lives in a small village in the Sudeten mountains with two dogs which she regards as her daughters. One day, her dogs mysteriously disappear and another weird thing is local hunters start turning up dead one by one. She thinks these two incidents are connected and she needs to solve this murder mystery to find her dogs.
A slow burn murder mystery that changes it genre according to the season. The narrative follows a dark mode style and there's an interesting side to the story, especially a scene where the director gives you important clue. The nature beauty plays a vital role in the movie and cinematographers Jolanta Dylewska & Rafal Paradowski captures some breathtaking visuals. The storytelling method is very slow and in fact sometimes it challenges me to stop watching the movie. Somehow, I maintained my coolness and finished it in one sit. Last 30 minutes completely change the whole equation of the movie and the third act was right on the money. Overall, it's an exciting film for animal lovers and a good mystery for any other fans.
Verdict: Good
