Synopsis

Retired detective Benjamin Esposito is trying to write a book about a vicious rape and murder of a young woman that he solved 25 years ago. However, while Esposito “solved” the crime, many issues went unresolved, including his feelings for his former colleague Irene As he tries to settle with the past, more and more events from the old case bubble to the surface. Can Esposito and those involved in the investigation resolve the loose ends and move on, or will they get swallowed-up by the past? Is it already too late?

Winner of Best Foreign Language Film at the 2010 Academy Awards, this is a gripping and moving thriller that will stay with you for a long time.
