Closed Circuit

Closed Circuit (2013) is a British conspiracy thriller you can watch online on iFILM, directed by John Crowley. After a bomb tears through a London market, two barristers are assigned to defend the prime suspect, only to discover they're former lovers.

Martin (Eric Bana) handles the open trial while Claudia (Rebecca Hall) works the closed, national-security side of the same case. The rules forbid them from speaking to each other at all. Yet the further each one digs, the clearer it becomes that the government is hiding something, and that the defendant's previous lawyer didn't die by accident. A city wired with surveillance cameras tracks their every move.

Written by Steven Knight (Locke, Peaky Blinders), the cast also features Ciarán Hinds, Jim Broadbent and Riz Ahmed. It's a cool, restrained paranoia thriller closer to 1970s British conspiracy films than to action fare, made for viewers who prefer quiet menace over shootouts.
