Estreno mundial

When the body of a young woman with her eyelids amputated appears in Valladolid, inspector Sancho foresees a chain of murders. With the support of ‘Carapocha’, one of the leading experts on serial killers, Sancho follows the trail of corpses that Augusto, a sociopath with refined tastes, leaves around the city. They soon discover that they are dealing with a killer who commits crimes with a soundtrack and signs the bodies of his victims with poems. What Sancho does not know is that the chase will turn into a very personal duel.
