When a dead body turns up on the concrete banks of the Los Angeles River, Bell realises the malevolent gang leader whose operation she once infiltrated has returned.

Anchored by a transformative performance from Kidman, Destroyer is the kind of fast-paced, hard-hitting cerebral action film Kusama (Girlfight) is known for, bolstered by a strong supporting cast and a smart, labyrinthine script. Meanwhile, Kidman’s Bell acts as a modern-day Charon, taking the audience on a tour of the hell of modern-day Los Angeles.
