A story of the seventies and the fight against ETA., 8 November 2004
10/10
Author: Rodrigo Calvo (rodrigo.calvo@gmail.com) from Spain, Oviedo

Amazing, fast moving and with great actors, by both sides, french and Spanish one. A great soundtrack. Outlines the story of Lobo the undercover agent that helped do the biggest breakdown ever to hit ETA (Terrorist Group of the Bask Country). A wonderful mix between action, romance and a inside look at the police side while Franco was alive. Great outdoors shooting.

A must see. If you have the chance, very different to what we are used from Spanish movies.
