Michael is a powerful and thought-provoking drama that explores the complex and disturbing relationship between a middle-aged man and a young boy he holds captive in his basement. The film delves into themes of isolation, abuse, and the blurring of lines between imprisonment and fatherly love. With a quiet, unassuming existence, Michael's life is turned upside down when he takes the boy on a pleasure trip outside of town, leaving extra food for him while he's away. However, things take a dark turn when Michael attempts to abduct another boy, and the film builds towards a shocking climax that will leave audiences reeling. With outstanding performances and a haunting atmosphere, Michael is a must-see for fans of psychological dramas.
