'Stillwater' follows an American oil-rig roughneck from Oklahoma who travels to Marseilles to visit his estranged daughter, in prison for a murder she claims she did not commit. Confronted with language barriers, cultural differences, and a complicated legal system, Bill Baker builds a new life for himself in France as he makes it his personal mission to exonerate his daughter.
""Stillwater: In Search of the Truth" is a dramatic thriller directed by Oscar-winning Tom McCarthy ("Spotlight: Revealed Secrets"). The movie is about an unemployed man who travels to France to see his daughter, who is imprisoned for a murder she denies having committed. Faced with a complex judicial system and cultural differences, he struggles to exonerate his daughter while building a new life in the country. It is a character study that, although not perfect, intelligently tackles issues such as racial hatred, moral ambiguity, and acceptance of both others and one's own mistakes, with a powerful performance by Matt Damon ("The Last Duel"), accompanied by Abigail Breslin ("Little Miss Sunshine")."
