Dominik Moll's film "Lemming" is one of those thrillers that grips the viewer from the first frame, then doesn't let up until the grip is tight and recognizably restricting air. The film tells the story of a young couple who invite the man's boss to dinner for a quiet meal in their new house. Unfortunately the boss and his wife come immersed in their own problems, some of which they leave behind when they leave. All of the tension, peculiarity, and ambiguity that follows begins with a simple sink clog, and ends as one of the strongest thrillers of late. "Lemming" is a quaint little domestic drama shrouded in darkness that shows impressive talent by all involved, especially Charlotte Gainesbourg as the man's demure wife.
