Montse doesn’t want to be alone. Montse is a sad case, nobody likes her and she doesn’t get any joy in life. She sacrificed her youth raising her little sister, who, after the death of her mother (while giving birth) and the disappearance of her father (in the war), didn’t have anyone who would look after her. She’s God fearing and prissy. And on top of all that, she suffers from agoraphobia, she’s not even able to leave her flat. The film relies on the superb performance of Macarena Gómez, who plays the character in an incredibly nervous way. You feel how she loses control of the unseen, and her helplessness and anger. But you also understand and sympathise with her in a way – she doesn’t want to be evil, but the circumstances of her life, which have denied her of even a shred of happiness, have turned her into a stuck-up person who makes life unpleasant for others. A very impressive film, only the ending is perhaps a bit too grandiloquent for me. I haven’t felt sorry for a “villain” in a long time. After a relatively long break, I’m again satisfied with a Spanish horror thriller.
