Dean⭐ 9/10
Director Oriol Paulo delivers an exceptional psychological thriller set in a 1970s asylum that keeps you constantly guessing whether protagonist Alice is a brilliant private investigator trapped in a conspiracy or a masterfully manipulative patient in her own delusion. Bárbara Lennie carries the entire film with commanding charisma, alongside Eduard Fernández as the stoic hospital director. With its fantastic production design and tense score, this layered puzzle box of a film makes every minute engaging and stands as essential viewing for fans of cerebral mystery thrillers.
