Synopsis
The award winning thriller that'll bury you with laughs.
When accountant David, doctor Juliet and journalist Alex are searching for a fourth roommate for their trendy flat, they settle on the aloof Hugo. However, they soon find Hugo dead of a drug overdose, beside a large sum of cash. After some deliberation, the three others decide to keep the money and to dismember and bury Hugo's body. Soon, each roommate starts thinking about keeping all the money by scamming the others.

Review by amaya ★★★★ 8
realizing my favorite kind of conflict in movies are those who could easily be resolved by a threesome
-
Review by gal pacino ★★★★ 5
admire how successful this is at being so many different movies at once:
~a paranoid parable about how quickly distrust can unravel the closest-knit friendships~a lyrically edited and claustrophobic crime story that knows exactly who/what to focus on in order to stay engaging (the protagonists’ turmoil and NOT the detectives’ investigation ... who CARES about procedurals! not danny boyle thank GOD)
~an elusivefantasy about being twenty-something and able to afford living in a huge beautiful apartment in the city with your roommate ewan mcgregor whom you just performed one of the all-time intimate acts with: corpse burial
