Spanish directors have given a huge leap in the past 10/15 years in regards to movies, especially the Thriller genre. Hollywood has a steady rival in Spainwood!

Great photography, simple but extremely original and well developed plots, excellent actings and absolute tense moments make this, along with several other Spanish thrillers, a great qnd pleasurable movie to watch.

Not advancing much of the story, a family's daughter disappears and a stranger seems to be the lead to bring her home. However, things won't be as easy as they seem, and a lot of uncomfortable moments will pop out like popcorn, one after another. Yes! This movie intends to be uncomfortably macabre; on purpose. And while we'd swear never to agree with the scenes before us, we'd never knew we'd be so close to aprove them in the end! Worth a try for thriller lovers.

It's been several days since I saw "Bajo la rosa" and I still can't get it out of my head. The film entrap you completely within an intriguing and disturbing plot at the same time, where actors shine in a state of grace. Especially Ramiro Blas.

The film begins with the kidnapping of a girl, but this element is only the excuse to question the life of a family in the most surprising ways, advancing in crescendo until reaching a cathartic ending. A masterpiece script.

Honestly, it has been a long time since a movie impacted me like that, plus being a debut and counting with only 4 actors and a house. Without a doubt, Josué Ramos is a director to follow.

Sure, this is a chef d'oeuvre. The scenario is of a rare quality, and the actor's play deserves such a compliment. Bajo la Rosa is somewhere between "Theorem" of Pier Paolo Pasolini, and "Le charme discret de la bourgeoisie" of Luis Bunuel. Bajo la Rosa retrieves the complexity and the mastership of the times when great european masters were able to make true Art on screen. Besides the depicts of the lies that lurk behind a model family life, the author drives the characters toward a surrealistic level : the mysterious visitor of the night acts as the angel of Pasolini, and the familly members are progressively extracted from the daily reality to a nightmare that could be the gates of a Doomsday...
