Great dark theme, post revolution plot for a perfect Partnership of a Cop living in his past and one living in hope of a better future. Both living a Damaged life, only to solve the gruesome murders? well no, the younger yet depressed cop keeps a keen desire to be a hero for his unborn son, while the other is determined to wash off his dirty past, making it evident that both were not born to see the day of democracy or liberty, drinking off to the fear of what the future has in store for them in Spain, Constantly reminded of the fragility of life, squeamish is the last thing u want to be.
Apart from the story, the scenery is something that'll leave your mind blown away, with amazing Marshlands, perfect thriller-mystery atmosphere and brutal murders, a close to perfection criminal-noire film. A Must watch if you are into Spanish cinema, cause all good criminal/thriller/mystery directors are imported from the land of the Spaniards !
