Psychological thriller and domestic drama find common ground in the lean, well-acted The Secrets We Keep, starring Noomi Rapace, Chris Messina and Joel Kinnaman.

Directed by filmmaker Yuval Adler from a screenplay he wrote with Ryan Covington, the film bears a loose resemblance to Ariel Dorfman's Death And The Maiden, and focuses on a Romanian war bride haunted by her past in post-World War II America.
