Mark is a nomad fighter who is taken in the backseat of a car to fight in underground combats.

But Mark's past will catch up to him, putting in danger Sandy, his escape plan, and all the people who surround him.
Directed by Mario Pagano, Backseat Fighter leans on a strong ensemble — Iván Sánchez, Martina García, Frank Feys — 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 drama titles of 2016.
