If you loved El sabor de la muerte, try Pacto con la muerte
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Barbet Schroeder, and they both carry the paranoid, raw mood tags, and they sit in Crime / Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to El sabor de la muerte, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Pacto con la muerte is
Crumbling 1998 San Francisco sun on a hospital’s glass skin. Frank Connor guards a skull-tagged boy while Peter McCabe, manacled to a stainless gurney, studies the exit sign above. A Schroeder chamber-thriller chasing daylight through steel corridors.
