If you loved Z, try The Ax
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Costa-Gavras, and they sit in Crime / Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Z, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Ax is
Paper-company corridor, Wednesday noon, the hum of a dying printer. Bruno’s severance package arrives on a Tuesday. His résumé circles back unopened. Their savings drawer yawns empty. Costa-Gavras slyly raids Kafka for a joke too bleak to laugh.
