Blood and Circumstance

2014· 97 min★ 7.0· Crime, Drama, Mystery

A study in family dysfunction, this intense crime story revolves around a series of interviews with inmate, Joel Stabler, who is being examined by a psychiatrist charged with determining whether Joel is fit to stand trial. As the narrative rotates back and forth from present day to 15 years earlier, we begin to fill in the real story of what led Joel to where he is today. By the end of the film, much of what Joel has said is called into question and the audience is left to piece together what really happened. BLOOD & CIRCUMSTANCE is a psychological puzzle box, filled with questions in a world where there are no easy answers.
