DramaThrillerMystery

An Ottawa police captain searches for the person who poisoned his sister, who was attending the university in Montreal. So desperate is he for revenge that he begin to use his own brutal methods to find the killer. Soon he discovers that not everything is what he thought it was.

VIBE

A grim, morally ambiguous descent into vengeance. This film feels like a rain-slicked, neon-drenched urban labyrinth where every shadow hides a threat and justice is a dirty word. It’s a brutal, unvarnished look at obsession.
