Our take
Pulling its dialogue from FBI transcripts, this riveting thriller restages the arrest and cross-examination of whistleblower Reality Winner in close-to-real time. With a superb lead performance from Sydney Sweeney, Tina Satter’s gripping film interrogates the cost of truth and the balance of power.
