Trying to balance fairness and respnonsibility, a young police officer refuses to arrest a youth for offering drugs to his friends.
The font, although a bit extreme, is somehow fitting to the poster. However, the gun in the hollowed-out bible doesn't seem at all appropriate.
What's most attractive about this film is how little you learn about it. It feels like a classic example of foreign-language feature built on dark comedy and intriguing narrative details.
It's a submission for a Foreign Language Film nomination at this year's Oscars. I don't know if it can make the cut, but it's one of few that have earned actual advertising campaigns.
I have not seen this film.
