California, beginning of the 19th century. Diego, the son of the governor, has been sent abroad to study in Spain but is in fact leading an uninhibited and wild lifestyle. There in Spain, he is re-acquainted with his childhood friend Luisa, who has come to tell him of his older brother Ramon’s tyranny following their father Alejandro’s death.

Joel Coen has gone solo to create perhaps the greatest version of Shakespeare's 'Macbeth' since Shakespeare himself.
The Noel Diary is about a man who unlocks an old diary containing secrets of the past.
Four more classic horror films that are entertaining even if occasionally absurd.
