Wrecker (2020)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

Adaptation of Anton Pavlovich Chekhov’s story A Malefactor. An unemployed resident of one of the Ukrainian villages, Andrii Konotop, is detained on suspicion of stealing wires from electric poles. The case is simple and clear – Konotop was taken red-handed. Andrii is an ordinary villager and a rather simple man. He is being optimistic and does not understand the seriousness of the case.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
