| Summary |
A darkly turbulent crime noir, HEADSHOT is an existential thriller, ripe with shadowy paranoia. This disorienting game of cat and mouse is played out in present-day Thailand, where corruption runs rampant and the good die young. When Tul, a straight-laced cop, is blackmailed by a powerful politician he soon becomes disillusioned by the state of human nature and, in his vengeful condition, is recruited to become a hitman for an iconoclastic group aimed at eliminating those who are above the law. But when a devastating blow turns Tul's vision upside-down, he finds himself engulfed by doubt, unaware of whether the condition is medical or a result of karmic retribution. Official Selection at the **Berlin International Film Festival** and the **Tribeca Film Festival.** "*A dreamy, elliptical neo-noir about a cop turned killer turned something else altogether.*" - Manohla Dargis, ***The New York Times*** |
