The Forgiven (2017)
Worth watching. They tell an incredibly important story well.

The story of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission should be required viewing as far as I'm concerned. The actors and director clearly care about this story and they have told it well. I'm a white South African with family that were in the police and military during this time. I think this movie is incredibly well done. Don't worry about the camera angles and makeup; just watch, enjoy, and maybe even learn something.
My favourite exchange:
"Do you know what Paradise Lost is?"
"A nightclub?"
"No, you clutch plate. It's a poem... about me!"
Cheers,
Pierre
