Broken

About This Movie

So, 'Broken' is this really intriguing mix of drama and thriller that's kind of hard to forget. The atmosphere is heavy, almost claustrophobic, as it dives deep into the complexities of care and human connection. You have this young woman trying to escape her past, but it’s the way her new job caring for a tetraplegic reveals the darker sides of her character that’s really gripping. The pacing is intentionally slow, which builds tension, and the performances - especially from the lead - are raw and affecting. It doesn’t shy away from the uncomfortable aspects of caregiving, making it a distinctive watch. The practical effects are minimal, but they add to the realism without being overbearing. Quite a fascinating piece overall.
