Description: A visceral explosion of Corsican grit and familial turmoil, Julien Colonna's "The Kingdom" isn't just a film; it's an experience. Ghjuvanna Benedetti delivers a powerhouse performance as Lesia, a teenager thrust into a brutal world of hidden agendas and violent confrontations. The film masterfully captures the volatile chemistry between Lesia and her fugitive father, played with captivating intensity by Saveriu Santucci. While the plot centers on a desperate escape and a bloody war within the walls of a secluded villa, "The Kingdom" truly shines in its exploration of fractured father-daughter relationships forged in the crucible of violence. Anthony Morganti adds another layer of complexity to the narrative, enhancing the already tense atmosphere. Colonna's direction is unflinching, painting a brutal yet beautiful portrait of survival and the unshakeable bonds of family, even in the face of unimaginable adversity. This isn't just an action thriller; it's a powerful character study.
