25 Kilates

Tuesday 29th September 2009

Dir. Patxi Amezcua

A Spanish crime film that focuses on dirty dealers and the corrupt police who serve them.

When a money-hungry swindler becomes entangled in his web of scams he turns to daughter, Kay, for help with a double-cross to acquire €400,000; but when he gets caught midway it’s up to Kay and a little help from a stranger to come up with a plan to rescue her father before they both get killed.

With crooked cops and clever hustles, 25 Kilates is like watching a British crime film with subtitles.
