Movies like Ikka

“Ikka (2026) is a 2020s Indian courtroom drama that frames an ethical dilemma at the heart of professional life. It stages a lawyer’s conscience—defending a man he suspects is guilty—through high-contrast chiaroscuro, tight interiors, and a slow-burn dramaturgy to map pressure onto form. Ikka forces ethical ambiguity into the foreground, making the film a measured probe of duty versus personal loyalty.”
