Collective (2019)
Movie
Released
After a nightclub fire, journalists keep following evidence about why people are dying in hospitals. The film moves between a newsroom, survivors and officials, letting each apparent explanation lead to another institutional problem. Alexander Nanau's observational access gives the discoveries an urgent present tense. This is the best starting point here if the appeal of a thriller lies in watching patient, collaborative work make a powerful organisation harder to ignore.
