The Customer

About This Movie

The Customer is a gritty little gem that really dives into the chaos of addiction and desperation. The film unfolds in real-time, which pulls you into this small apartment where every character feels like they just stepped out of a noir novel. The pacing is tight, almost suffocating, as our lead—this small-time dealer—tries to navigate the fallout from his brother’s overdose. The atmosphere is drenched in tension, and the performances are raw, making every interaction feel urgent. The practical effects are pretty effective, adding to the film’s realism without overdoing it. It’s one of those flicks that sticks with you, highlighting how quickly life can spiral when you're caught in a world of crime and family ties.
