Great acting; great storyline; great special effects - gory, bloody and overall convincing drama set in The Hague, for a welcome change from Amster- or Rotterdam, with an exposing look on and in a (quite European) subculture of immigrants that shows existentialist struggles like everywhere else in the modern world. Some tongue in cheek to... Your sister is a wanted serial killer, I know, but we have to stick to "normal" - so: don't you have any homework? Really ma? Loved the score as well: banlieu hiphop, some French, some Dutch, but it set the mood. Again: not your typical dutch melodrama with characters frustrated because of their calvinistic upbringing but a fresh and modern tale of (maybe misplaced) shame and revenge for internet exposure.
