Last Night I Conquered the City of Thebes
«I don't want to be a hero, I want to be alive.» Enrique, a young Spanish soldier, speaks these words as a verdict in 2025 when he is deployed on a mission to Africa. The drama unfolds not on the battlefield, but in the space between orders and conscience. Director Carlos Méndez explores not the roar of war, but its echo in the souls of those who wage it. The film becomes an intimate study of trauma, where every dialogue is an attempt to negotiate with oneself. The viewer witnesses not a conquest, but an internal collapse, where the boundaries of duty and humanity are finally erased.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Carlos Méndez constructs the narrative with extreme restraint, where tension arises not from action, but from what remains unsaid. His camera captures not events, but their reflection in the protagonist's eyes, creating an effect of painful intimacy.
Anyone ready for a heavy immersion into an ethical void, where there are no easy answers, only questions that linger long after the credits roll. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Gabriel Azorín

On a predawn flight when everyone else is asleep and there's only endless dark outside the window.
