GUTS / Agallas, Festival de Malaga 2009

Sebastian, a small time crook who just got out of prison, decides to look for a job in the small company. Obviously, it's not what he wants to do with his life, but something tells him that the owner of the company, Regueira, hasn't bought his Jaguar just with sea food. Thanks to a trick, he gets to meet the manager of the factory, Raul, and gets hired. Regueira doesn't trust Sebastian at first, but he soon discovers this young guy with half of his teeth gone has guts, and so he decides to turn him into his assistant. Gradually, Sebas changes his looks, gets new clothes, new teeth, and gains his boss´ confidence. Now he seems to have reached the peak - or almost. But Sebastian, so smart and ruthless, ignores heis part of a bigger game, far too big for him..

Sebastián, un delincuente de poca monta recién salido de prisión, decide buscar empleo en una pequeña empresa de Galicia. Pero no por vocación desde luego, sino porque algo le dice que el dueño de la empresa, Regueira, no se ha pagado el Jaguar con cangrejos. Mediante una astucia, se hace amigo de un encargado, Raúl, y consigue que le contraten. Regueira se lo cree sólo a medias, pero comprueba muy rápidamente que aquel joven de dientes mellados tiene agallas y decide convertirlo en su ayudante. Poco a poco, Sebas cambia de aspecto, se gana ropa nueva, nuevos dientes y sobre todo la confianza de su jefe. Parecerá haber llegado a la cumbre o casi. Pero, Sebastián, tan listo y despiadado, ignora que forma parte de un juego que le supera.
