Cruel & Unusual

A psychological thriller about a man condemned to relive a crime he believes he didn't commit. As he revisits his tragic last day and navigates his way through a strange institution, his perception is tested in a quest to find the truth. A man and his wife die in each other's arms. The husband, Edgar, finds himself condemned to a special place in hell, blamed for her murder - a fact he refuses to accept. His punishment is to eternally re-live that last dreadful day. Learning that his only escape is through enlightenment, he enlists the help of fellow inmates and devises a plan to end his horrific cycle. Ultimately, he comes to understand that the opposite of innocence is not so much guilt as it is responsibility. (Verleiher-Text)
