If you loved El Médico, try Juego de Ajedrez
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Juego de Ajedrez tiene aproximadamente 7.5× votos menos que El Médico — es una opción más underground, no una recomendación de masas. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.

Both films are directed by Philipp Stölzl, and they both carry the slow burn mood tag, and they sit in Drama / History territory. If that's the register that drew you to El Médico, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Juego de Ajedrez is
Vienna, spring 1938. Police sirens howl through empty streets, their beams flashing off a chess piece left on a windowsill. A lawyer refuses to betray his network, so the Gestapo locks him in darkness and waits for collapse. A dog-eared book becomes his only move—then his last one.
