Synopsis
An Ordinary Man (2017) is a drama led by Ben Kingsley that you can watch online on iFILM. A former general wanted for war crimes in the Balkans has spent years dodging the tribunal, moving from one safe house to the next. He has no name on screen — only guards, forged papers, and the constant dread that someone will finally come for him.
His one human contact is Tanja, a young maid played by Hera Hilmar. What starts as the cold distance between an employer and his help slowly turns into wary conversation, and before long you begin to suspect she didn't land in his apartment by chance. Director Brad Silberling keeps it tight, resting an entire thriller on two performers and a slow drip of suspicion.
Ninety minutes with no battlefield in sight: the war lives only in the general's past, shrunk down to cramped rooms and quiet exchanges. Kingsley plays a monster desperate to pass as an ordinary man, and that gap is the whole film. It rewards viewers who love a two-hander and an ending that hides a second floor.
