Intriguing, slow-burner of a film with excellent performances and controlled direction. Very slowly and deliberately paced, the film captures the period ambiance effectively -- yet still feels long for its 100-minute runtime. Without giving anything of importance away, this film could be described as the "Apocalypse Now" of Swiss banking films -- including a tense boat ride up a jungle river to meet a military leader. Not a great film, but very good, and the similarities to Coppola's previously mentioned masterpiece -- whether intentional or not -- enhance its watchability.
