TROUBLED WATER

Director Eric Poppe / 2008 / Norway

<p><strong>“A brilliantly conceived, magisterially orchestrated drama.” - <em>Variety</em></strong><em></em></p>

<p>This third feature film from Erik Poppe (<em>Hawaii, Oslo</em>, MIFF 05) packs an emotional wallop. The drama hinges around a twist of fate that brings together the lives of a convicted child killer and the bereaved mother he wronged.</p>

<p>Morality, redemption and forgiveness are put through their paces as the director builds a forceful story from the very different perspectives of the two protagonists.</p>

<p>“A sensitive, slow-build script, original directorial vision and bravura performances turn what might have been just another high-concept melodrama centering on the death of a child into a highly-charged ride that is both gritty and poetic.” - <em>Screen Daily</em></p>
