Heel

CriticsCritics: 76
AudienceAudience: 7.0

A volatile young man who spends his days partying and causing harm is abducted after becoming separated from his friends, then wakes chained in the basement of a remote Yorkshire home. There, a strange family begins an unsettling effort to change his behavior, as life in the house brings shifting tensions and uncertain loyalties.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like tense, unconventional dramas about captivity, family, and the possibility of change; Not for you if you prefer brisk pacing, clear answers, or a straightforward moral perspective.
