      Andy Webster New York Times The film, adapted from Josep Maria Mir's play "Archimedes' Principle," falls on the right side of its issue, if barely. Feb 26, 2016 Full Review Louis Proyect rec.arts.movies.reviews Tightly coiled drama of swimming instructor falsely accused of molesting a boy. Thematically related to "The Hunt" but more in common with the theater than the typical film. All in all, a gripping tale. Feb 24, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews

      Audience Member This film was incredibly interesting as it allows the audience to think for themselves, whether they believe Jordi or the parents of the children. The film brings awareness to a difficult topic of sexual abuse and raises you to think about society in the way people act.One interesting thing was the concept of shared perspective which they adapted from the play to the film by replaying a certain scene. In the play, they changed the props and setting half way through to allow the whole audience to see each different side/view. It also showed how things can be seen in many different ways, which is one main theme the director, Ventura Pons, wanted to include. Furthermore, this links to the title as 'our way of seeing things is associated with fear'. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
