What a great film! The “rising through the ranks of crime” narrative reminds me of ‘city of god’ or ‘blood in blood out’
Immaculate cinematography, incredible performances and greatly nuanced crime family story. Dark and beautiful. Made by a master filmmaker.
An exploration of the corrupting influence of capitalism, how even centuries long traditions and ties are ground to nothing under its march.
Embrace of The Serpent was a story about how colonialism destroyed native culture, this is a story of how capitalism destroyed what was left
Another Colombian drug movie. Maybe it's a little more critical than other producction that deal whit the subject. beautiful photography.
The artistic merit in this gangster epic can be considered the foreign “Godfather” with a grand story and the truth of the fallen lineage.
