The madness of a middle-aged frustrated man inspired by kindness

Spain has a lot of good films lately, and this work is also a superb one.

The story is about a disabled man who lives alone and rents out a room on the second floor. A mother and daughter come to rent it, adding fun and warmth to his gloomy life. But one day when he was working in the underground tool room, he occasionally heard the voice next door, and it seemed that he was still talking about him. In order to find out the truth, he installed a pinhole camera, but suddenly found that the female tenant appeared next door, had an intimate conversation with a group of gangster-like people, and revealed an action plan about the bank robbery... The male protagonist was going to call the police, but when he heard the gangsters say that the police also had their insiders, the male protagonist turned his back and prepared to use the black to eat the black.

The plot behind the scene is full of dangers and keeps reversing. The two-hour film is not too protracted, but it is often breath-taking. The plot design is excellent, but the clue that the previous female protagonist found the burning wreckage of the vehicle in the male protagonist's yard was not explained in detail, which is a bit redundant. In addition, I really like the design style of the male owner's house, but I just wonder why from the direction of the outdoor gate, he lives in a townhouse, and the next door should be the same as him. From the inside, it turns into a large natural scenery next door. Is it a problem with the art set or my spatial misjudgment? Ha ha!

Going back to the main story line, I still feel a little bit counterintuitive. After the female protagonist was turned against, she tried to prevent the male protagonist from implementing the black-and-black plan, but the male protagonist was determined to cut off his beard. I really don't understand what he's trying to do? And once it is discovered, the consequences are unimaginable, and it is completely unnecessary, right? ! In short, it would be perfect if this motive could be explained more clearly.

Great movie, recommend it!
