Paesa – Der Mann mit den tausend Gesichtern

Madrid, autumn 1980. A rain-drilled suitcase bursts open in a train toilet, spilling fake passports across black-and-white tiles. An exiled fixer sells himself back to a dictatorship disguised as a democratic ally, fabricating threats to launder arms and lives. A 1970s-style Eurothriller in which identity itself is the ammunition.
