The Limits of Control (2009)

In the enigmatic labyrinth of subterranean secrets, a solitary man, a courier of clandestine origins, navigates the vibrant pulse of Madrid, guided by cryptic instructions from two philosophical yet brutish puppeteers. His silence is a language in itself, his demeanor a paradox, oscillating between razor-sharp focus and a dreamlike trance. He does not speak Spanish, yet he communicates through the universal currency of mystery. His world spins to the rhythm of espresso served in two cups, matchboxes hiding minuscule pieces of paper, and an array of artifacts - a violin, diamonds, a guitar, a map. Each object, a puzzle piece in the grand scheme, each interaction, a stepping stone further into the shadows. As he ingests the paper messages, he digests words of philosophy and warnings, feeding his mind and fueling his mission. He is a vault of secrets, unyielding, self-contained yet constantly evolving. Is he a smuggler, merely a conduit, or something more? The stranger operates on the fringes of the law, his objectives as elusive as the man himself. His journey is more than just a trek across the sun-drenched landscapes of Spain; it is an introspective odyssey through the corridors of his consciousness, a test of his unwavering adherence to the rules he lives by. The Limits of Control is a mesmerizing dance between reality and perception, a voyage into the depths of the human psyche, where nothing is as it seems.

The Limits of Control is a crime movie featuring Isaach De Bankolé and directed by Jim Jarmusch.
