I saw this film at the Palm Springs Film Festival this past January. For this showing, I felt a palpable tension in the audience during the entire two-hour length of the film.
The movie focused on historical events of which I was completely unaware. A nuclear disaster in Yugoslavia leads to infected lab workers being transported to France to undergo experimental treatments - the first transplant of non-related bone marrow .
The acting, direction, and writing in this film are top-notch. In fact, it was, in my view, far better than any of this year's Oscar-nominated films and the most intriguing movie I've seen in years. It is befuddling that this site's user reviews of this film are either exceptionally good or exceptionally bad. Were we watching the same film?
I would really like to have the opportunity to see Guardians of the Formula again to confirm my first impression of this film, but I've been looking for it since January to no avail. Why isn't this film available in the U. S. on Netflix or some other streaming service?
