EL CRIMEN DE CINE ORIENTE / Murder at the Orient Cinema

Pedro Costa
Spain
Synopsis
Director

It's not their lucky day when Salvador and María run into each other at the beginning of the 50's. She's just lost her job as a maid and he's the manager of the Orient Cinema, where María chances to shelter from the rain. Deciding to live together, they set out on a relationship fraught with failure, frustration and bad luck - until María stabs Salvador to death with a kitchen knife, never realising it would be so difficult to get rid of the body.
