Sarfaraz A Jan 10 Oriol Paulo wrote the screenplay and Mar Targarona directed this Spanish-language film. starring Antonio Dechent, Blanca Prtillo, and others. The film follows a middle-aged single mother, a lawyer, whose small son was just discovered on the side of the road, bleeding from the head. The youngster claims that someone abducted him from his schoolyard. Patricia (Blanca) has a good network of links. The accused kidnapper, who has a past criminal record, is released due to a lack of proof and says that he has never seen the youngster before. Someone is stalking Patricia and invading her house at night, and she fears her son is in danger, so she turns to her ex-husband for aid in terrorizing the suspect. However, all is not as it appears. Although the film has an intriguing story, it is a crime inside a crime, or a Pandora's box. Patricia is caught committing a crime herself and is turning into a tool in the hands of those she believes are her tools. Although the film is fairly lengthy, you are compelled to see it through to the finish, which may disappoint some viewers. Nevertheless, the climax is both triumphant and defeating.
