MICHAEL (2011) - ♦♦♦♦

Directed by - Markus Schleinzer

Written by - Markus Schleinzer

Starring - Michael Fuith, David Rauchenberger

"The portrait of a paedophile who keeps a ten year old kid locked up in the basement though on the outside he lives the ordinary life of an ordinary thirty year old. This film is a very interesting and original portrayal, which tastefully chooses to remain neutral to his obviously deranged central character. This is a choice that makes Michael an unsettling, awkward and cold film, and a choice that works to create an original portrait. A good performance by Michael Fuith in the titular character of the paedophile completes the picture."

Drama, Austria
