THE ROTTEN LINK

Fan of regional craftsmanship and authenticity… welcome to El Escondido! This small village with barely 20 inhabitants seems completely immune to 21st century modern life. The priest keeps the Christian faith alive. Raulo, a big dude who must have banged his head on the wall too many times, distributes logs of wood to the community and his beautiful sister Roberta trying to maintain community relationships in her bar’s backroom. She doesn’t just empty glasses of whiskey, but also the balls of every man she can get her hands on. Well, all but one… There is a local legend that even Roberta will not defy. But the spurned one also wants to dip his stick in Roberta’s honeypot. Very very very bad idea.

Valentin Javier Diment was unforgettable in Jorge & Alberto VS the Neoliberal Demons (BIFFF 2015) and also shares the poster of Benavidez’s Case. He even had the time to direct this deranged but remarkable masterpiece. His secret? A blend of Haneke’s raw realism and Tobe Hooper’s chainsaw ethics. The Rotten Link hits you in the face and will leave a big mark, guaranteed!
