The Hunt

CriticsCritics: 85
AudienceAudience: 8.4

A lonely teacher is struggling to regain custody of his son when his life begins to improve: he finds love and receives welcome news. But a small, innocent lie soon turns his close-knit community against him, leaving him to face suspicion and isolation.

My take

You’ll like this if you enjoy emotionally intense dramas about community, suspicion, and injustice, with compelling performances and a story that lingers; Not for you if you want a light watch or neatly resolved conflicts.
