Our take
Acclaimed actor Juan Minujín (The Two Popes) channels the gnawing disillusionment of the acting life into his emotionally charged directorial debut. Structured around a series of bristling interior monologues, Vaquero simmers with an all-consuming obsession that stems from thwarted aspiration.
