La Zona


<< Back


There are movies that are so realistic that they can keep you focust the whole film without a second of absence. La Zona of the director Rodrigo Pla is such a movie. The film is set in a elite neighborhood in Mexico-city, a sort of enclave of rich bussiness men who build themself a sort of eutopia in the middle of the city with walls, barbed wire and surveilance camera's. The police has no power in this 'safe' enviroment, better they can't even get in. During a storm there is a breach in this safety, 3 boys get into the compount and murder a woman, 2 boys get shot, the third escapes and tries to hide, this is how the story starts of the boy and the son of one of the leaders of the zone. Beautiful camera work, fast and realistic filmed, lot's of violence and a hard end, worth the effort.
