The Patrolman

After the friendly fire death of his brother in the Nebraska State Patrol, veteran patrolman FRANKIE has been struggling to avoid 'burnout.' It's another slow day for him and new partner TERRY until all hell breaks loose at the local roadhouse and Frankie ends up in pursuit of a stolen police cruiser on a stretch of highway near the state line. With the radio, Frankie is able to talk to the perp, only to find out that it's his dead brother BILLY...or is it? As they approach the State Line, Frank can go no further, legally or emotionally. He must make a decision ..

Directed by J. Søren Viuf, The Patrolman leans on a strong ensemble — Rafael Cobos Delgado, AprilAnn Dais, Gus M. Darden — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about thriller titles of 2023.
