From the Judges, on The Reckoning (2020)

From the Judges, on The Reckoning

A feature that looks hard at real-world issues and refuses to soften them, this one leaves a mark. The panel came away struck by how real it felt, praising the assurance of the direction and the confidence of the opening scenes, and the performances landed with a force that stayed with them. It reads as filmmaking made for a big screen and a wide audience.

Curated, anonymised highlights drawn from the judges' notes.
