"Wicked film, invites comparison with Kieslowski ." -Libération
Homebound is the true story of
a brilliant young student who has to leave the campus and his girlfriend
behind and return home to save his mother from
an abusive new husband she married straight out of prison. At their
wits end, the two hire a
hitman to sort out the problem. The stepfather "moves to Sweden"
and all is calm - until his body surfaces at the town's port.
