Rabia plot

Rosa hides illegal immigrant José Maria in the abandoned attic of the Spanish house where she works as a domestic worker after he accidentally kills his foreman while a construction worker. The stately house is labyrinthine and noisy and the jealous José Maria keeps an eye on everything. But the other mutual relationships of the residents are also imbued with suspicion. Because where he fears to be discovered and persecuted, the master and lady of the house argue about her drinking and his rigidity and Rosa has to keep her intrusive son from the body.

Film adaptation of a novel by Sergio Bizzio, who also directed XXY. The novel (Razernij) will also be released in the Netherlands this spring, and will undoubtedly be accompanied by a cinema release, a film that distributor Cinemien exudes in all facets. I wouldn't be surprised if they bought this or are going to buy it.

Skillfully made romantic drama-thriller with an excellent performance by Gustavo Sánchez Parra as the crazy José Maria. Chills as the film progresses and he 'transforms', so to speak.

Everything has been taken care of down to the last detail, which is the film's greatest strength. The disadvantage is that the film flies through time. I didn't feel like Mr. spent about a year in the attic.

No punishment to view this, especially not by (hottie) Martina Garcia. But this is mainly intended for 40+ year old housewives.

The story of this film is very special and also very suitable for making a film. Two young people have only just met each other. She works as a housekeeper for a family in a large house. That house is so big that not all rooms are used. At one point he kills someone and hides in the attic of the house without her knowing. So they miss each other even though they are so close. So that is the basis of the story. So I think the story is very good. The acting itself is certainly not bad. But otherwise the film is unfortunately a bit linear and the story continues as it goes. That's too bad. With a special director who would add beautiful special images or other extra things, it could have been a very nice top film. But unfortunately that is not the case now. This movie is just good. Three stars. With half an extra for the good story.

A beautiful woman that Rosa. Only she deals with a very flammable type. But it is certainly undeniable that there is love between the two. All in all a great movie. You just have to look past the little inaccuracies.

How long has he been in that house without anyone noticing? How does he keep getting food? What does he do with his clothes? It's not very logical or practical. The house may be big, but you can't hide forever. The film is sloppy in that respect.

But there is a certain tension and all in all the film remains fascinating. Towards the end - the birth of the child - a huge time jump is made. It could certainly be addressed in a more qualitative way, but the basis is certainly there. Nice binoculars for once.
