Bennie, a down-on-his luck piano player in a Mexico City saloon, finds himself improbably involved in the hunt for Alfredo Garcia – a man with a million-dollar bounty on his head, having seduced the daughter of a powerful crime lord.
Setting off on his bizarre mission with his girlfriend Elita, Bennie’s hopes of a quick pay-day soon dissipate as the pair’s road trip descends into a tequila-fuelled trek across the desolate Mexican frontier where violence is never far away.
A potent, uncompromising cocktail of brutal violence and searing insight into the folly of man, Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia is vintage Sam Peckinpah: divisive, disquieting and impossible to ignore.
