Info

Plot

Coming to cinemas is the prequel to 'El crack', a film by Jose Luis Garci. In this black and white film, 'El crack cero' returns to the more sordid, completely unrecognisable Madrid of the 70s. The young inspector Germán Areta (Carlos Santos) investigates the 'Benavides Case': after the suicide of the famous tailor Narciso Benavides, his lover becomes convinced that he did not commit suicide, but was murdered, leading to Areta being placed in charge of the inquiry six months later.

In this new instalment of the trilogy we'll be able to see the characters as they were in their youth; the moment in which Areta sussed out El Moro (Miguel Ángel Muñoz) and the beginnings of the already classic detective agency, in a new film written and directed by Garci and starring an incredible cast.

Trivia

Unexpected return

José Luis Garci promised in 2012 that he wouldn't direct or write scripts anymore. However, he decided after some time to come back to the cinema with this 'El crack cero' to finish his trilogy. He did this inspired by Maite Imaz, Alfredo Landa Areta's widow, the protagonist of 'El crack' and close friend to Garci.

End of a trilogy

'El crack cero' is a prequel to 'El crack' and 'El crack II', which will be the end of the trilogy that started with the release of the first movie in 1981, 38 years ago.
