December

About This Movie

‘December’ is a layered piece that navigates the murky waters of grief and revenge. The narrative unfolds around a minister's secretary, whose tragic demise in an explosion sets off a series of dark events. We see the minister himself fall victim while under care from the secretary's son, who grapples with his own demons. The pacing feels deliberate, almost methodical, allowing tension to build slowly. There's a rawness in the performances that adds weight to the unfolding drama. The atmosphere is dense with a sense of impending doom, and practical effects, though modest, serve the story well. It’s not a flashy film, but rather a somber exploration of loss and the cycle of violence it can spawn.
