The Glass House (2023)
Ambitious architect Victoria has carefully designed her life. She is bringing up her daughter as a copy of herself and hardly notices anything outside her ideal world. The next step for self-realisation is a project that should bring her long-awaited recognition. But during the inauguration, her daughter disappears. The police are convinced that Alisa is involved in drug trafficking. For help, Victoria is forced to turn to her ex-husband, who works for the police. Their visions of the tragedy differ, and over time Victoria begins to realise how far her daughter has actually drifted away from her. The ideal relationship with her daughter, based on mutual understanding and frankness, is a bubble that bursts. Victoria is confronted with the real world and begins an investigation, although she doesn’t want to lose her reputation as well. In a vacuum of loneliness, under pressure from society and her ex-husband, Victoria risks her life to prove her daughter's innocence.

Excellent but underrated film
As Good As It Gets
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
