About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a slow, moody crime drama that’s more about inner struggle than clues and action, with a rural Canadian feel like Cardinal; Not for you if you need a twisty, fast-paced mystery.
Pros: strong lead performance; haunting rural mood; thoughtful redemption focus | Cons: very slow pacing; thin mystery plot; loud divisive music
