Libéré après une longue peine d'emprisonnement pour un crime qu'il nie avoir commis, Jan Thomas est prêt à démarrer une nouvelle vie. Organiste virtuose, il joue dans une église d'Oslo qui lui offre une seconde chance. Grâce à son don pour la musique et sa gentillesse, il gagne rapidement le respect de ses supérieurs et le coeur de la pasteure Anna à qui il ne dévoile rien de son histoire. Mais son passé le rattrape lorsqu'Agnès, venue visiter l'église avec ses élèves, reconnaît en lui le jeune homme qui fut, des années plus tôt, accusé du meutre de son fils. (Jour2fête)

A psychological drama about dealing with guilt. What could have been just a teenage folly becomes a tragedy due to chance. There are different kinds of guilt and responsibility for the death of a child is among the greatest. The main character of the story, after years spent in prison, returns to freedom convinced that he has paid for his crime more than enough and it is high time to repress the matter from memory and make up for what can be done. But there is still the mother, for whom the wound is still fresh, and she wants an apology and full confession from the perpetrator. However, for the guilty, this means the necessity to fully admit guilt - and that is harder than spending time in punishment. The film is shot in the spirit of Dogme 95, with which I often have problems, but in the case of Troubled Water, Erik Poppe caught me in just the right mood, certainly also thanks to the power of the subject matter. The path to reconciliation here is neither cheap nor simple. Overall impression: 90%.
