The Formers (1999)
The Radar read
A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.
Synopsis
The events take place in and around the families of former officials. Thus, when the former minister, the former chief, the former manager get drunk, they first fall into a sea of grief, then forget that they have lost their positions, in short, a situation arises that cannot be avoided by ridicule.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
