Joe Cinque's Consolation(2016)

What is the price of love?

Joe Cinque's Consolation is a true-crime drama set in Canberra in late 1997. Law student Anu Singh planned to kill her boyfriend Joe Cinque, hosting a series of macabre farewell dinner parties where university students heard rumours of her intentions but said nothing. Joe's death and the trial that followed captivated Australia, forcing the nation to confront how a life could slip through so many hands—people who knew, stayed silent, and did nothing to intervene. The film examines the shocking case and the moral questions it raised about complicity and responsibility within a tight-knit community.
