The harrowing Spanish film you can watch for free: an airport and a nasty interrogation

A couple held up at customs at an American airport , a windowless room, and an increasingly tense interrogation are the only ingredients in one of the most shocking Spanish films of recent years. Available for free on a digital platform, this work has become a brief but suffocating cinematic experience, capable of gripping the viewer with a story that blends suspense, migration, and mistrust.

Shot between Madrid and Barcelona in just 17 days, this debut film by Venezuelan filmmakers Alejandro Rojas and Juan Sebastián Vasquez doesn't need grand effects or ambitious sets to generate a growing sense of threat.

Its story, starring Alberto Ammann and Bruna Cusí , reflects the anguish of immigration controls in a context of growing political hostility, while surgically dissecting the relationship of a couple trapped between suspicion and silence.

At just 72 minutes long , Upon Entry manages to hold the viewer's attention. This tense and claustrophobic drama, set almost entirely in a border waiting room, has been recognized at festivals such as Malaga and Buenos Aires, although its run at the Goya Awards was modest in a year of fierce competition.

Also available on RTVE Play , the film combines a sharp script with intense performances to deliver a devastating cinematic experience . Ideal for those seeking psychological thrillers or stories steeped in realism, Upon Entry is as uncomfortable as it is necessary.
