Spanish thriller ‘The Bar’ to screen at the PEFF

CAIRO – 16 November 2017: The 2017 Spanish thriller “The Bar” will screen as part of the

10th Edition of the Panorama of the European Film Festival

on Saturday, November 18.

In director Álex de la Iglesia’s film, patrons of a bar in Madrid find themselves in more trouble than they could have imagined when an unseen shooter kills two people. Finding themselves trapped, the residents of the bar struggle for answers and begin turning at each other’s throats; fear and paranoia spreads amongst them like a contagious plague which all leads to a wild finale down in rancid sewers.

“The Bar” premiered at the Berlin International Film Festival on February 15, 2017, and won the Silver Méliès Award at the Neuchâtel International Fantastic Film Festival.

The Panorama of the European Film Festival runs from November 8 until November 18.
