ROTTEN FRUIT

Cinemavixion Review

Johan Vandewoestijne's 2021 crime thriller, "Rotten Fruit," offers a tense, character-driven narrative centered on Detective Paul Wolfs. As Wolfs approaches his final week before retirement, he believes he has finally apprehended Robert Clarck, an alleged serial killer. The weight of the evidence against Clarck is substantial, and a confession would serve as the crowning achievement of Wolfs' long career. The film delves into the psychological stakes of this pivotal case, exploring the dynamics between the seasoned detective and his potentially unrepentant suspect. With performances from Stefan Vancraeynest, Rufus Six, and Michele Rocco Smeets, "Rotten Fruit" promises a compelling examination of justice and the pursuit of closure in the twilight of a lawman's life.
