Plot and critical response
The film follows the story of a convicted murderer who escapes from prison. He is driven by a single goal, which is to seek revenge on his former lover. As the story unfolds, unexpected developments change its course and blur the line between justice and morality.ETimes’ review of the film reads: “The film takes several twists and turns, some of which, including the climax, are genuinely moving.
