Rapine

A plane comes down at the top of the mountains. Two poor woodcutters find the wreck. There is nobody around, and there is money, jewellery and watches on the dead. The two of them decide to take it. The decision itself is easy; the real matter starts afterwards: how to hide the money, whom to tell and whom not to, and how far to trust each other. Carlos Enrique Taboada's Mexican film is a director known for horror telling a moral story directly. There is nothing supernatural here; the source of the fear is poverty and what greed does to a person. Ignacio López Tarso is in the lead. The telling does not judge the two men easily; it shows what brought them to that decision, and it does not dress up the outcome.
