The regime’s censors say Franco’s Spain is an absolutely paradise and there’s no crime at all – but as a prison guard, Carlos knows better. He passes the time penning pulp novels set in the Wild West. A recently arrived convict, Victor Ramos, is also a writer of dime novels. Victor has been arrested at a recent protest, and his stories contain coded criticism of Franco. When Carlos helps Victor, he steps within reach of the regime’s iron fist.
Starring Antonio Gil Martinez, José Miguel Jiménez, Federico Julián Gonzalez, Leticia Vaquero, Marcos Isla and Roger Gregg.
