The Hunt

1966 · TMDB 7.0 · La caza

Directed by Carlos Saura

Three veterans of the Spanish Civil War go rabbit hunting. While doing so, old wounds open up.

Why it matters

Carlos Saura sends three veterans of Franco's side into the Spanish scrub for a day of rabbit shooting. The heat, the rabbits and the old resentments do the work, and the rifles stop pointing only at animals.
