A Small Killing

About This Movie

A Small Killing is a gritty TV movie that really captures the desperation of urban life. The pacing is slow but deliberate, allowing the tension to build as the professor, played with a subtle unease, dives into the seedy underbelly of the city. The atmosphere is heavy, almost claustrophobic, reflecting the grim reality of skid row. The practical effects are minimal but effective, adding to the film's rawness. Themes of identity and moral ambiguity are explored as the protagonist grapples with the duality of her role. It’s not flashy, but it has a certain charm—like a hidden gem that’s worth discussing among collectors, despite its obscurity.
