About The city and the captive
A journalist investigates the life and work of a cult writer. Little is known about her life: she published a novel, which was a small success, and then disappeared. While trying to decipher her ghostly figure, she uncovers a web of plots that involve her.
Directed by Franco Figueroa, The city and the captive leans on a strong ensemble — Karla Sufi, Malena Di Modica, Facundo R. Salomon — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about mystery titles of 2024.
