The Engineer is a harrowing look into the life of Israel Ticas, El Salvador's sole criminologist. This documentary immerses you in a world overshadowed by violence, as Ticas digs through the aftermath of gang wars, notably between MS-13 and 18 Street. The atmosphere is heavy, filled with a sense of urgency and dread, reflecting the grim realities of his work. Pacing feels deliberate yet intense, giving you time to absorb the weight of each discovery. The film really shines in showcasing Ticas’ resilience and dedication, almost like you’re walking alongside him through graveyards and crime scenes. It’s raw, unfiltered, and definitely leaves a mark on your mind about the human cost behind the headlines.
