Cast

Jonathan Holland of Variety gave the movie a positive review saying that is "strongly scripted and well-played treat convincingly employs thriller elements to make its heavyweight agenda palatable... Parallels between the two tales of violence and submission are not overdone. Script is content to point out that power games exist at every social level, from the local and domestic to the global, and that the two are not easily disentangled."
