overview
What is Absolution about?
One man, two boys... one deadly game. At a Catholic boys' school, domineering disciplinarian Father Goddard rules over his pupils with an iron hand. When one of his teenage charges confesses to murder, the dogmatic but deeply repressed Goddard finds his faith challenged and his life spiralling dangerously out of control. It blends drama, thriller, mystery elements. The film reflects a distinct United Kingdom style and perspective. The story is brought to life by director Anthony Page. With a runtime of 1h 35m, it offers a comfortable feature-length experience.
