The action of El Asaltante takes place over a two and a half hour period, just at the crucial moment when a long-prepared plan is about to be executed. As the camera closely follows his actions, the viewer becomes a privileged witness to one man’s most intimate moments of anxiety and desperation, to the seconds that precede a life or death decision.
Event/ We are pleased to welcome director Pablo Fendrik for a post-screening Q&A session.
