series Gianfranco Rosi
Directed by Gianfranco Rosi | 2010
“Proves the degree to which life is pulp.”
—Nick Pinkerton, The Village Voice
Rosi’s minimalist tour-de-force takes the talking-head format to its gripping, disturbing extreme. In a nondescript hotel room, a man, his face shrouded by a black hood, matter-of-factly describes his life and career as a hitman for a Mexican drug cartel. The stories he spins—of crime, corruption, torture, and murder—are chilling evocations of evil, but it’s impossible to look away.
