📖 Synopsis

In a dystopian future, prisoners live in vertical cells. A platform full of food descends every day from above, and those on the upper floors eat everything, leaving nothing for those below. Galder Gaztelu-Urrutia directs this allegory of capitalism and inequality with brutal and effective minimalism. Claustrophobic, violent, and philosophically straightforward, it became a phenomenon on Netflix and a symbol of ambitious Spanish genre cinema.

✍️ Our review

8.1/10 ★★★★☆

The Spanish thriller that's a hit on Netflix. A perfect allegory of the global economic system with an unexpected twist at the end.
