The CinePearl Take
Director Luis Hernández crafts a relentless rhythm that never lets the tension breathe, while newcomer Ana María Gómez delivers a razor‑sharp performance as the determined journalist racing against a lethal algorithm. The film’s visual palette—cold blues juxtaposed with the city’s chaotic heat—mirrors the protagonist’s internal conflict. Though the third act veers into melodrama, the film’s commentary on surveillance culture remains hauntingly relevant.
