Agallas

About This Movie

So, 'Agallas' is pretty intriguing. It’s got this gritty atmosphere, you know? The story revolves around Sebas, a small-time crook out of prison, who ends up working for this shady guy, Regueira, in Galicia. It's not your typical job search—he’s got his own motives tied to Regueira’s dubious dealings. The pacing feels deliberate, almost suffocating at times, which adds to the tension. The performances have this raw edge, particularly Sebas, who walks a fine line between desperation and cunning. There’s this undercurrent of moral ambiguity throughout the film that really sticks with you. It’s not flashy; it’s more about the characters and their choices. Definitely leaves an impression.
