This mordant black comedy has a pointed social critique at the core of its drama.
Jose Garcia is a specialist chemist retrenched after fifteen years' service who eventually devises an ingenious - if disturbingly amoral - strategy to get back into the game. Garcia's deft comic timing and finely nuanced characterization serve the film beautifully.
