Tones: darkly comic, tense
Carkoma and his friends laugh at Copito while Dani argues with Ainhoa yet again; leaving the after-hours club they are surprised by a police breathalyser checkpoint.
Picked by Felix
The scouts
A breathalyzer checkpoint as narrative turning point—totally subverts the tired drunk-shenanigans comedy by letting bureaucratic accident become moral reckoning. Everyone else would've made this maudlin; Martí keeps it funny *and* lethal.
The film's formal restraint—that casual setup bleeding into consequence—echoes the minimalist social realism of early 2010s Spanish cinema, a lineage it wears with knowing precision and compositional discipline.
The single choice that matters: holding on the friends' faces *before* the checkpoint appears, letting us clock the hierarchy and fractures in that group dynamic so the police stop lands with actual weight instead of just shock.
