A psychologist falls for a sex offender she's treating in prison.
Trailer
Why watch the movie Instinct?
"The relationship between doctor and patient can always yield intriguing stories. In 'Instinct', we have a psychologist (Carice van Houten, whom you will recognize as Melisandre from 'Game of Thrones') who goes to work in prison and gets involved with a prisoner who has committed serious sexual crimes (played by Marwan Kenzari, Disney's villain Jafar from the remake of 'Aladdin'). For some, this plot will remind them of the relationship between Joker and Harley Quinn in comics and movies; for others, of the controversial Dr. Drauzio Varella on 'Fantástico'. The fact is that this feature film adds a few more layers to this type of question. Actress Halina Reijn's (‘Operation Valkyrie’) debut as a director is intelligent, bringing a movie with a lot of sexual charge and ambiguous characters, which will certainly leave you impacted."
