When Angels Sleep

The behavior of the protagonist was that of a madman, or a psychopath. I’m not sure I quite understood the introduction, but without it, the following plot wouldn’t probably make any sense at all. Then it was becoming crazier and crazier and the originally banal story turned into an interesting intimate thriller. People didn’t act the way you would expect them to, but there was always something to watch and you could cut the suspense with a knife. (14.05.2020)

The Spaniards come up with another chilling and disturbing thriller! The protagonist travels home from work in the middle of nowhere in the evening to catch his daughter's birthday and, tired, closes his eyes for a few seconds only to accidentally hit a drunken teenager who was loitering by the side of the road. The problem arises when her friend turns up and the protagonist is left with only two options: confess and go to jail, or kill them both and save his family. A very unenviable situation that the Spaniards handle with a chilling atmosphere. Suspenseful, bleak, rather unpleasant and even though it doesn't whip up twist after twist as is usual with the Spaniards, it is a very decent piece. 7/10. (14.11.2019)
