Once you persist in the lie, it is still difficult to turn back. The circumstances then make it even more difficult when all kinds of peripheral factors arise that you have no control over. Society regards you as a victim and sees you as a symbol of a general problem in society. Although the opportunistic motives of that activist certainly play a bitter role. And that also applies to the mayor. The film thus has various layers and movements that influence each other.
In that respect, a special film that makes you stop and think about what was happening, especially if others have to bear the consequences. Blasko also focuses fully on that and does not ensure a burst bubble. Good, because it would have snowed under the attention of the strong preceding part.
It's easy to judge, but I can still place it somewhere. A tough dilemma and as the best pilot you have your judgment ready, but what if you're stuck with it yourself. Not a bad film!
