in Spanish, with optional English subtitles
When a deceased factory worker is buried along with his union card, his family—in need of the document so that his widow can collect the pension she’s due—must contend with endless bureaucratic red-tape to have the body exhumed. Marrying Buñuel-style surrealism with nods to 1920s silent comedy, this uproarious absurdist farce is a daring satire of governmental inefficiency.
