Director: Corneliu Porumboiu

Language: English, Spanish, Romanian and Silbo
Cristi is a corrupt, disillusioned police detective in Bucharest who is in league with the criminal elements he is meant to be investigating. He travels to La Gomera in the Canaries to help a crime boss get a businessman out of jail and uncover millions in hidden cash. But first he must learn Silbo Gomero.
This ancient whistling language is used by the locals to communicate across the island’s deep ravines and valleys, and also by the mafia to avoid detection. Constantly under surveillance himself and never sure who he can trust, Cristi is a marked man whichever way he turns.
