Synopsis

The tormented veteran Joe tracks down missing girls for a living. However, when he sets out to rescue the kidnapped daughter of a US Senator from a sex trafficking ring, things go horribly wrong. As he finds himself weathering a storm of corruption and vengeance, nightmares start to overtake him.

Our take

After a six year absence, Lynne Ramsay returned with this stripped-to-the-bone adaptation of Jonathan Ames’ muscular novella. Featuring a powerhouse lead performance from Joaquin Phoenix, and a mesmerising Jonny Greenwood score, this enigmatic thriller is a triumph of form and psychological texture.
