The new film, “Nitram” is based on the horrific event that occurred in Tasmania, Australia in the mid 90’s.


WIthout going into too much detail about the plot, Nitram (played exquisitely by Caleb Landry Jones) is a young man that lives with his parents. He struggles to fit in and consistently feels alone.


He eventually meets an elderly woman when he knocks on her door to see if she’d like her lawn mowed so he can earn some money. They form an odd friendship and it’s really Nitram’s only friendship. Helen (played by Essie Davis) turns out to be an eccentric heiress with a great deal of money.


I’ll stop there so I don’t spoil the film.


“Nitram” is a compelling film. Caleb Landry Jones is in basically every scene and he brings the level of method type acting that only a master can execute. He is simply incredible to watch as his character descends into a state that is eventually unspeakably horrific.


“Nitram” is worth your viewing time.


Best,
