Our take

A Cannes-selected thriller from the recently Oscar® nominated Santiago Mitre, The Summit examines the limits of power, profit, and paranoia. With a star-studded cast including Ricardo Darín as an enigmatic president, this political nail-biter blurs the boundaries between realism and metaphor.
