A respected police officer grieving the loss of a colleague investigates a murder while struggling with a troubled mind and visions of the dead. As tensions with authorities grow, he seeks answers and closure for a grieving mother who blames him for breaking a promise.

My take

You’ll like this if you want an emotional, unconventional police mystery with grief, psychological tension, and strong performances; Not for you if you prefer fast-paced procedural dramas without surreal elements.
