Geschichte
In the isolated countryside village of El eslabón podrido, Raulo, a mentally challenged lumberjack in his fifties, lives with his elderly mother Ercilia and younger sister Roberta. Ercilia is a senile witch doctor who harbors a dark prophecy: if Roberta sleeps with every man in town except Sicilio, she will be cast out and die. Roberta, the village's beloved prostitute, has thus far abstained from being intimate with Sicilio due to his wife's jealousy. As Ercilia's death approaches, her warnings become more insistent.
Zusammenfassung
El eslabón podrido is a 2015 Spanish drama-horror film directed by Valentín Javier Diment. Set in a remote village of just twenty houses, the story revolves around the complex and sometimes morbid relationships between its inhabitants. The narrative explores themes of love, lust, jealousy, and familial bonds, all entwined with a supernatural element through Ercilia's prophecy. The film is notable for its exploration of these dark themes within a seemingly idyllic rural community.
