As follow-up to his touching yet grungy romance Tonight, You’re Mine, English director David Mackenzie has tackled a script based on the experiences of voluntary prison therapist Jonathan Asser. It’s a radical leap in subject and tone, but one boldly and brilliantly made. Starred Upis raw, relentless and riveting.
