Alec C @RT70643905 04/24/2024 The truth is hard to deduce, especially the person you're interviewing! As a man is arrested for a stolen car, the police believe that the man is a secret serial killer, but internal affairs and the mans protestations of innocence make it hard to tell if he's lying. A psychological crime thriller with Hugo Weaving playing a man who has many dark secrets, but is not about to reveal them so easily!
