You may like this if you want a heavy, challenging drama about power, guilt, and social tension in South Africa, in the vein of A Dry White Season or Waiting for the Barbarians; Not for you if you want uplifting stories or easy-to-root-for characters.
Pros: thought-provoking themes; strong lead performance; tense atmosphere | Cons: very bleak tone; hard to like characters; upsetting animal scenes
