The Ice Ruts

About This Movie

The Ice Ruts is an intriguing drama that weaves the personal and the professional in a unique way. Mayu Daimon is a detective, but there’s a heavy weight on her shoulders—her father's impending death looms over her, creating a tension that permeates the film. The atmosphere is quite somber, reflective of Mayu's internal struggle with her past and the looming threat of loss. The pacing can feel slow, almost methodical, which gives space for the emotional beats to resonate. The performances, particularly from the lead, feel raw and authentic, adding depth to her search for identity amidst the chaos of murder investigations. It's that blend of personal journey and procedural that makes this film stand out, along with its understated visual style.
