'Santosh' Review | Tense Police Thriller Is the U.K.'s Oscar Entry

There is a certain ferocity in lead actress Shahana Goswami's lioness eyes that effectively carries her stunning new feature, Santosh, all the way to the harrowing finish line. Goswami's exhausting journey as the eponymous female officer trying to navigate an unwieldy investigation into a woman's rape and murder in rural India might have you holding your breath in tension. After a twisty, unnerving two hours, writer-director Sandhya Suri's great police thriller finally lets you exhale.
