Furtivos (poachers)

This subversive film satirizes the political situation in Spain and opens with a quote attributed to Franco: Spain is a peaceful forest. The plot centers on a romantic triangle involving a man, his mistress and a jealous mother. The forest, which provides the setting for this allegorical tale, is hardly a serene sanctuary. Government officials hunt for sport while the common people must trap or poach in order to survive. A poacher named Angel is dominated by his malevolent mother who runs a country inn. When the young man falls in love with Milagros, a runaway from reform school, the women battle for control in a fight to the death. (Circulates)
