Vengo

In Vengo, Gatlif weaves together passion, revenge, and music. As the Caravaca clan seeks retribution for the killing of one of their members by Caco’s brother, Gatlif takes us on Caco’s rapid descent as he struggles to settle his family’s affairs, all while being haunted by the memory of his lost daughter. Co-written by Gatlif and David Trueba, Vengo is an ode to Spain’s gypsy way of life and their captivating, intoxicating music— which, according to Gatlif, is their life, what they do best. The film remains as bewitching today as it was upon its release 25 years ago.
