Overview

A mysterious stranger works outside the law and keeps his objectives hidden, trusting no one. While his demeanor is paradoxically focused and dreamlike all at once, he embarks on a journey that not only takes him across Spain, but also through his own consciousness.

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A hypnotic, deliberately enigmatic journey through Spanish landscapes and the protagonist's own interior world, where plot takes a back seat to atmosphere and visual meditation on secrecy and control.
