Released from prison after serving a sentence for a violent crime, Ruth Slater re-enters a society that refuses to forgive her past. Facing severe judgment from the place she once called home, her only hope for redemption is finding the estranged younger sister she was forced to leave behind.
"Nora Fingscheidt, from 'Explosive Disorder', is the director of 'The Unforgivable', which stars Sandra Bullock as Ruth, a former inmate trying to adjust to a society that no longer sees her as a human being. The weight of having served a sentence seems to be more than the time in prison in this situation. At various moments, we see that Ruth would have preferred to die or stay in prison than face the world again. 'The Unforgivable' proposes reflections on this and also on the prison system - it is no surprise to anyone that it is full of problems. Another thing that stays in mind is whether we should judge every criminal for their crimes or if they deserve redemption for having "paid" for it. Sandra Bullock delivers a great level of performance, making us feel in Ruth's place, providing a constant feeling of fear and frustration with the future."
