🎬 State Security

Young state prosecutor Seyo Kim firmly believes in the system she represents. But when she herself becomes the victim of a racially motivated attack, she begins to uncover a disturbing pattern: unsolved cases of violence against immigrants, evidence swept under the rug, and silenced witnesses. A suspicion that individual incidents are linked to an extensive network of right-wing extremism that reaches into the judiciary itself brings the young lawyer to the brink of an abyss. Descending into it means war with those whose side she stood on until recently. Director Faraz Shariat has made a gripping film that combines a topical social issue with the tension of a precisely constructed and stylistically assured thriller.
