Wat je kunt verwachten
A dark, claustrophobic, and slow-burning noir thriller driven by psychological manipulation and moral unraveling rather than fast action. It is accessible yet deeply unsettling. Content notes include premeditated murder, alcoholism, domestic conflict, and intense emotional blackmail.
