7 Años (2016)

The four equal shareholders in a software company have been diverting funds and the feds have found out. But if they can agree on which of them will take the fall, only that one will face the 7 year prison sentence. To help them get there, they bring in a non-partisan mediator.

It's a brisk 75 minutes of accusations, defensiveness, frustration, fear, and exhaustion. I just loved the way the dynamics would shift -- reminded me a lot of mafia (the game) except in that game most of the people voting are innocents while, in this scenario, all of the people are deserving of punishment.
