Our take

A reimagined western with an eco-conscious twist, Pablo Fendrik’s action-packed drama brings Sergio Leone-style thrills to the lush jungle of Misiones in Argentina. With the dashing Gael García Bernal as its mysterious hero, this dazzling film sizzles with old-school romance and daredevil adventure!
