THE DANCER UPSTAIRS (2003)

JOHN MALKOVICH

Plot

Agustin Rejas is a policeman after the elusive guerrilla leader Ezequiel, a man whose fight by terror is close to succeeding in its goal of bloody revolution. Though smart and intuitive Javier is up against a web of political intrigue that will test not only his skill as a policeman but also his will to survive. The Dancer Upstairs is John Malkovich's directorial debut and succeeds as a taut and atmospheric political thriller.
