Our take

A shimmering noir pastiche shot on evocative black-and-white 35mm, this Portuguese wrong-man thriller serves up a masterclass in high-contrast atmospherics. Starring the late Gaspard Ulliel, and taking the Best Director award in Locarno, 9 Fingers has all the ingredients for an instant cult classic.
