In vivid, clean lines, Anatomy of a Fall navigates this moral morass and exposes the absurdity of trying to pluck from it a simplistic, binary verdict.

This utterly unconventional drama from French film-maker Justine Triet becomes a Rorschach test for misogyny.

Anatomy of a Fall asks its audience to think about how we think about things and how we choose what we believe. It’s interested in the form of storytelling as much as it is interested in telling a story.

If [Justine] Triet eschews guns and car chases, her riveting thriller doesn't lack for twists and turns, but relies more on pungent dialogue, deeply-felt performances, and a spare, diegetic score.
