Our take

The feature debut from Spanish actor Raúl Arévalo (Pain and Glory) is a gritty, suspenseful revenge thriller set in a working-class milieu on the outskirts of Madrid. Rivetingly playing with the generic conventions of the western, the film explores the dangers of bruised, broken masculinity.
