🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The director builds tension through contrast: vivid, almost documentary-like footage of the 80s football stadium gives way to the muted palette of a modern investigation. The camera often follows the protagonist from behind, creating a sense of being pursued by the past.

Those who appreciate slow-burn narratives about institutional decay will find much to unravel here. What lingers is the unsettling weight of complicity. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: César Díaz

On a rainy afternoon, with the city blurring outside the window and the scent of old paper in the air.
