(El buen patrón)

A piercingly clever comedy from Spain, featuring Academy Award winner Javier Bardem at the top of his game.

Blanco (Javier Bardem), the charismatic owner of a family-run factory, is under pressure as he covets a local award for business excellence. Everything needs to be perfect! But the veneer of the perfect company cracks as Blanco has to deal with a vengeful fired worker, a depressed supervisor, and an infatuated ambitious intern. To win the competition, the manipulative "good boss" shamelessly meddles in his employees' private lives and crosses every line imaginable, unknowingly starting an explosive chain reaction with wild consequences.

“Slickly entertaining” Hollywood Reporter “A masterpiece” El Mundo

“Hilarious and accomplished dark comedy about the indignities of working life. A tour de force satire” CineEurpoa
