The President of the United States is shot in Spain. Who did it and why? We gradually piece together the mystery as the moments leading up to the gunshot are replayed through the vantage points of eight strangers. It’s a pretty interesting concept that is executed well. This movie didn’t blow me away, but it was well worth an hour and half of my time.
