A Noose Is Waiting for You Trinity

This sequel to the popular spaghetti western "Clint the Stranger" was released four years after the success of the first film and essentially uses the same plot. George Martin returns as Clint (renamed Trinity in some countries), an ex-gunslinger desperately wanting to be forgiven and accepted by his family that he abandoned years earlier. One major differences in the plot when compared to the first film is the addition of Klaus Kinski as a ruthless bounty hunter. The bounty hunter tracks Clint down and forces him to return to his violent ways to protect himself and his family.

Manifiesto Horizontal

In 2022, the original negative of the film Javier Aguirre created in 1973 was found. It had never been shown, due to the threat of censorship, which had already targeted his short film Che Che Che. Aguirre himself had written in the label Manifiesto Horizontal. It is the Communist Manifest written horizontally with transparent glue on 35mm film. Aguirre stated that this piece “is born out precision, geometrical thinking (…) and when something happens by chance, that chance has been thoroughly studied.”
