WHY WE LOVE IT

The director Rodrigo Sorogoyen, acclaimed for «As bestas» and an Oscar nominee for the short film «Madre,» achieved significant success in 2018 with this powerful and devastating portrayal of corruption within the Spanish political class. The film, which spares no one from the left, right, or center, garnered widespread acclaim from both the public and film critics. A Spanish-French co-production involving Tornasol, Le Pacte, and Bowfinger, it was selected at the San Sebastián Film Festival and swept the Goya Awards with seven wins, including Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Leading Actor (Antonio de la Torre), Best Supporting Actor (Luis Zahera, who repeated the honor with «As bestas»), Best Supporting Actress (Ana Wagener), and Best Original Score for French composer Olivier Arson.

SYNOPSIS

He is also a corrupt man who has been enriching himself with public funds for years. After attempting to cover up for an associate, Manuel is left exposed. To his surprise, the Party’s members seek to place the blame for the entire plot on his shoulders. But he will not surrender. How far is a person willing to go in order to hold on to power?
