A crime? "Okay, whatever," says the main character when she wants to find her place in the sun and make extra money through marriage fraud. However, she no longer likes murder, which is an integral part of her companions' plan. She simply has certain moral barriers that clearly do not bother the other members of the criminal gang. But Lorna does not realize that she is just a small fish and not the driving force behind events, so her rebellion against the planned transaction with a sad ending ends unsuccessfully, and she has no choice but to try to save her own life. This psychological crime story, with an interesting and unconventional actress in the lead role and a bitter plot, does not attempt to follow in the footsteps of Hollywood thrillers, but follows its own path of a small European film. Overall impression: 75%.
