An excellent slow motion home invasion

This movie reminds me a French film from 2005, TRAVAIL D'ARABE, with a rather close scheme, but not entirely though The old people whom young crooks try to take advantage from. A very good movie about loneliness and old age. It can be revolting, disturbing, but unfortunately close to reality. The young man who had not success in his lost life tries to abuse this poor old woman, so dedicated in her job of taking care of a church but fired by the priest. I hope it is not an accurate and true depiction of the Czech society. Interesting and surprising turn after two third of the film, that's precisely what is rewarding if you dare continue.
