A pair of Swedish twin sisters run out into traffic on a highway. They resist police and medical workers. One of them is released, only to go and kill a man.
Great story, poor production. The duration was far too long for the short story that it was about. My film director senses were tingling from all the filler material. Information density was extremely sparse, with heavy narration lengthening eye-witness reports by an obscene amount. Only some of the interviewees had anything at all to do with the story. Who is this psychologist guy? Not the psychologist hired by the defense or prosecution in the case. Hence, he doesn't matter. The subject matter was initially riveting. After the "motorway/carriageway" incident, it became much less interesting. The footage was pitiful. A few security cameras caught these women on video, there were a few interviews and the rest was filler. Audio was extremely normalized for TV, so everything sounded great to me. The modern television style calls for a catchy intro, followed by fluff and filler. This was adhered to religiously. I rate this bad. It didn't hurt to watch, but a few minutes of google search could pull up something better.
