Synopsis

Who really decides who is guilty or innocent among us? Where is justice when a person's life hangs in the balance?

A family dedicated to looking after young children are arrested for the horrifying crime of child molestation. However their guilt or innocence was not determined swiftly by their fellow countrymen in a court of law. Rather it was determined by the media and thus making up the minds of a whole country. The system we live in and who holds the power is exposed leaving a family devastated in its wake.

3/10

The choice of music in the film did not effectively convey the sense of injustice and powerlessness that the central characters faced. The lack of a compelling and emotionally resonant score detracted from the overall impact of the narrative, leaving the audience feeling detached from the gravity of the situation.
