Numa sala perto de mim #410

Rojo (2018) set in 1975 Argentina and centered around the existence of a small town influential lawyer. He leads a comfortable life, receiving occasional bribes for advice on how to circumvent the law, and turning a blind eye on the limitations of civil liberties typical of an authoritarian regime. Though his livelihood is never in danger, the mere threat that it can be gives him a little taste of what it is to live like the oppressed, which is genuinely terrifying. 

The acting is good but the slow pace of the movie makes it less powerful than it could be.
