Estíbaliz accepted her high-school friend's invitation to attend her village's festivities. What initially seems like a fun and exciting weekend turns nightmarish as Estíbaliz finds out these festivities involve the village men dressing up as wolves and hunting the women during the night. And what's even more terrifyng: nobody else seems to be alarmed or upset by this horrofic and twisted tradition.

00:00:31.962 --> 00:00:35.158
I'll say to the end...
00:00:35.582 --> 00:00:38.962
Pretty, pretty, pretty!
00:01:31.962 --> 00:01:34.330
There is a day when they get drunk...
00:01:34.354 --> 00:01:37.062
Block the road
and ask all the drivers for money.
00:01:37.086 --> 00:01:39.290
- You're joking?
- Yes, what a scene...
00:01:39.414 --> 00:01:42.254
- Mum, we're home.
- Hi, love!
00:01:42.626 --> 00:01:44.002
Look...
00:01:44.454 --> 00:01:48.166
My mum is crazy about tidiness,
so please take off your shoes.
00:01:48.222 --> 00:01:49.550
Oh, no worries.
00:01:49.910 --> 00:01:52.894
Like, as I was saying...
They really go to town.
00:01:52.922 --> 00:01:55.334
They get drunk
and get the animals drunk too.
00:01:55.518 --> 00:01:58.598
They take the goats from...
I don't know, their parents...
00:01:59.526 --> 00:02:01.098
Oh, that's Turco.
He's harmless.
00:02:01.278 --> 00:02:04.058
- You didn't say you had a dog.
- Don't worry, he's harmless.
00:02:04.106 --> 00:02:05.626
Anyway, they really go for it.
00:02:06.566 --> 00:02:09.166
He's a good doggie...
Turco!
00:02:09.190 --> 00:02:11.566
- Hey, look...
- Turco!
00:02:11.762 --> 00:02:13.646
- Raul, the dog!
- Does he bite?
00:02:13.670 --> 00:02:16.690
No, nothing like that.
Raul, your fucking dog!
00:02:16.714 --> 00:02:18.558
- What's going on?
- Turco, come on...
00:02:18.582 --> 00:02:20.714
Come and get your dog, son.
00:02:20.942 --> 00:02:23.166
Raul, are you deaf?
Sorry...
00:02:23.190 --> 00:02:24.790
- Come on!
- Are you an idiot?
00:02:24.818 --> 00:02:26.642
- Screw you.
- Children, please!
00:02:26.870 --> 00:02:28.346
Sorry, darling.
00:02:29.026 --> 00:02:31.714
You've told me a hundred times
but I don't know your name.
00:02:31.738 --> 00:02:34.114
Estibaliz, mum.
Like that singer you like.
00:02:35.038 --> 00:02:37.318
Pleased to meet you.
I forgot.
00:02:37.346 --> 00:02:38.970
- I'm run off my feet.
- Sure.
00:02:38.994 --> 00:02:41.142
Anyway, I'm making food.
If you need anything...
00:02:41.186 --> 00:02:42.486
We're going to get changed.
00:03:08.914 --> 00:03:11.958
Raquel, Raul!
Food is ready!
00:03:12.626 --> 00:03:15.354
Oh, what a fright.
You got me there.
00:03:16.258 --> 00:03:18.118
Sit down, it's almost ready.
00:03:18.142 --> 00:03:19.690
- Do you want a hand?
- No, thanks.
00:03:22.314 --> 00:03:23.634
You're so pretty.
00:03:24.062 --> 00:03:26.062
- Thanks.
- Esti, come on, let's go.
00:03:26.346 --> 00:03:28.118
- What, you're going?
- Do we have any cokes?
00:03:28.142 --> 00:03:31.142
- You're going now?
- We're meeting my cousin and the others.
00:03:31.166 --> 00:03:34.398
The marching band isn't till 7.
I've made croquets for you.
00:03:35.238 --> 00:03:36.566
Mum, it's the town fiesta.
00:03:36.622 --> 00:03:40.558
Your friend might be tired
and want to sit and eat something hot.
00:03:40.582 --> 00:03:42.214
She's not tired.
00:03:42.710 --> 00:03:44.090
- Come on, we're going.
- Okay.
00:03:44.114 --> 00:03:45.734
- See you later.
- Just a minute!
00:03:45.758 --> 00:03:48.762
We'd better call her parents,
tell them she got here safe.
00:03:48.790 --> 00:03:50.562
I already told them, so...
00:03:50.918 --> 00:03:52.770
- So that's settled, everyone is happy.
- Okay.
00:03:52.910 --> 00:03:55.930
- See you later.
- Take care and have a good time.
00:05:26.386 --> 00:05:28.318
Esti, I love you!
00:05:28.874 --> 00:05:31.302
- It's so great you've come!
- Yeah, what a blast.
00:05:36.798 --> 00:05:38.342
Know what we're going to do?
00:05:41.210 --> 00:05:42.366
What?
00:05:44.222 --> 00:05:45.910
Where did you come from?
00:05:46.074 --> 00:05:48.690
You're beautiful.
I'm really into you.
00:06:00.794 --> 00:06:02.186
You're looking so hot.
00:06:02.718 --> 00:06:03.994
What?
00:06:04.382 --> 00:06:06.322
- What?
- You're beautiful.
00:06:06.346 --> 00:06:07.546
Thanks.
00:06:40.782 --> 00:06:43.658
- Esti, are you in there?
- Yes.
00:06:43.974 --> 00:06:46.966
God, I thought you'd gone.
I've been looking for you for an hour.
00:06:46.990 --> 00:06:48.382
Okay, just coming.
00:06:54.342 --> 00:06:55.850
Raquel, where are we going?
00:06:55.986 --> 00:06:57.202
Shit, my jacket.
00:06:57.230 --> 00:06:59.766
- Did you leave it inside?
- Doesn't matter, another day.
00:07:01.378 --> 00:07:02.818
So, where are we going?
00:07:03.202 --> 00:07:04.762
Fuck, my cousin isn't picking up.
00:07:09.342 --> 00:07:10.874
Shit, they're already out.
00:07:11.258 --> 00:07:13.242
- Who is?
- Esti, come on.
00:07:13.490 --> 00:07:15.646
- Wait a minute, Raquel.
- I'll tell you later, okay?
00:07:15.670 --> 00:07:18.474
- Have you taken drugs or something?
- Esti, run, we need to hurry.
00:07:18.950 --> 00:07:22.138
Can you explain what's going on?
You're freaking me out.
00:07:25.050 --> 00:07:27.402
- Okay, sorry.
- Everything is fine.
00:07:27.942 --> 00:07:29.150
Look...
00:07:29.178 --> 00:07:31.910
The men dress up as wolves now,
okay?
00:07:32.262 --> 00:07:34.926
We've got to hide.
They come after us.
00:07:35.598 --> 00:07:37.370
But it's just a game.
It's fine.
00:07:38.734 --> 00:07:41.130
- Dress up as wolves...?
- Esti, run, come on.
00:07:41.374 --> 00:07:43.610
We should be hiding by now.
00:07:43.706 --> 00:07:45.738
- My cousin is going to kill me.
- Raquel!
00:07:48.810 --> 00:07:50.698
Wait a minute, I don't get it.
00:07:50.862 --> 00:07:52.662
- Raquel?
- Ro, where are you?
00:07:52.690 --> 00:07:54.642
Yes, I can hear you.
Where are you?
00:07:54.786 --> 00:07:57.870
Can't you wait and explain things to me,
I don't get it.
00:07:57.910 --> 00:07:59.714
Roci, tell me where you are, please.
00:08:00.074 --> 00:08:01.986
Don't get angry, coz.
We're on our way.
00:08:02.078 --> 00:08:04.118
- Well!
- Are you with that lot?
00:08:04.214 --> 00:08:05.758
See you there.
00:08:07.782 --> 00:08:08.930
Hey, wait.
00:08:10.762 --> 00:08:12.130
Raquel, can I go to your house?
00:08:12.154 --> 00:08:13.802
No, Esti, come on, let's go.
Hey, hey!
00:08:13.842 --> 00:08:15.690
- What about your cousin?
- Isn't she with you?
00:08:15.726 --> 00:08:17.786
I'm sure they're there.
We look like assholes.
00:08:17.814 --> 00:08:20.014
- Let's go to the hunter's house.
- No, the German's.
00:08:20.038 --> 00:08:21.838
Javi told me they were going there first.
00:08:21.862 --> 00:08:23.414
They got Sabi there last year.
00:08:23.438 --> 00:08:25.402
- Let's go now.
- No way.
00:08:28.210 --> 00:08:29.998
- Shit, run!
- What the hell is this?
00:08:48.834 --> 00:08:50.334
Raquel!
00:08:53.370 --> 00:08:55.434
Raquel, don't leave me alone, please!
00:08:57.506 --> 00:08:58.894
Where are you?
00:09:01.218 --> 00:09:02.478
Raquel!
00:09:04.498 --> 00:09:05.578
Hey!
00:09:10.458 --> 00:09:13.794
- Did you fuck him?
- No, but he ate my pussy.
00:09:14.162 --> 00:09:17.234
What are you saying?
You fucked the Bacanito?
00:09:17.626 --> 00:09:19.510
Exactly, good and proper.
00:09:19.586 --> 00:09:22.166
You, you, you...
Eva, come here.
00:09:22.294 --> 00:09:24.530
I'm finding myself again, shit.
00:09:25.226 --> 00:09:27.614
- What a weirdo he is.
- He was frisky that boy.
00:09:27.662 --> 00:09:30.070
I wouldn't fuck him,
not even with another girl's pussy.
00:09:30.094 --> 00:09:31.366
He's got a split personality.
00:09:31.422 --> 00:09:32.994
Here, do you want some?
00:09:33.018 --> 00:09:34.234
He's crazy, loco.
00:09:38.010 --> 00:09:39.470
What's up with you?
00:09:40.038 --> 00:09:41.238
Nothing.
00:09:42.018 --> 00:09:43.306
You sure?
00:09:45.058 --> 00:09:48.314
I don't understand
why you didn't tell me before.
00:09:49.182 --> 00:09:50.838
What, the wolf thing?
00:09:50.926 --> 00:09:52.870
Yes, I don't find it funny.
00:09:53.566 --> 00:09:55.470
Look, it's just a game.
It's all right.
00:09:55.494 --> 00:09:57.438
I thought you'd like it.
00:09:58.218 --> 00:10:00.222
What, some guys...
00:10:00.850 --> 00:10:02.762
coming to do whatever to us?
00:10:03.394 --> 00:10:06.122
Esti...
I don't know, it's a local tradition.
00:10:06.754 --> 00:10:08.502
Shit, you're really not into it.
00:10:08.530 --> 00:10:10.138
Did you hear that scream earlier?
00:10:10.162 --> 00:10:13.702
It's all just a joke.
Part of the game.
00:10:15.462 --> 00:10:16.950
Well, I don't get it.
00:10:18.682 --> 00:10:20.766
What's up with you?
You in the huff?
00:10:21.198 --> 00:10:23.710
- No, she is fine.
- You in the huff? What's up?
00:10:24.870 --> 00:10:26.566
What you should do is eat a nice dick.
00:10:26.590 --> 00:10:29.650
Hey, what a brute you are, Rocio.
00:10:30.158 --> 00:10:33.746
Eat a nice dick and grow up.
00:10:34.102 --> 00:10:36.702
This is our town.
It is what it is.
00:10:37.046 --> 00:10:39.266
If you don't like it, you can go.
00:10:39.834 --> 00:10:42.334
- She can be nice sometimes.
- Don't nice me.
00:10:42.954 --> 00:10:45.398
Just listen to me.
Everything is cool.
00:10:45.422 --> 00:10:47.454
What do you have to talk to her about?
00:10:47.558 --> 00:10:49.910
Fuck her.
She can leave if she likes.
00:10:49.934 --> 00:10:54.402
Listen, just enjoy yourself and laugh.
That's what life is for.
00:10:54.426 --> 00:10:56.790
The best part is still to come, Esti.
You'll see.
00:10:56.878 --> 00:11:00.334
Look...
Whatever you do, they'll catch you.
00:11:00.490 --> 00:11:03.770
So just relax, go with the flow
and don't make a scene.
00:11:05.238 --> 00:11:09.050
- You her babysitter or something?
- No, I just want to help her.
00:11:09.526 --> 00:11:11.014
Okay, Esti.
00:11:11.994 --> 00:11:14.538
- We're going to enjoy ourselves.
- It doesn't matter.
00:11:14.846 --> 00:11:16.302
- I'm fine.
- Are you?
00:11:16.686 --> 00:11:18.802
- You sure?
- Completely, now give me a beer.
00:11:18.850 --> 00:11:20.130
I'm fine, just fine.
00:11:27.382 --> 00:11:28.958
- Esti!
- Raquel, they're coming.
00:11:28.986 --> 00:11:31.046
Come on, wake up.
00:11:31.334 --> 00:11:33.514
Esti, they're coming.
00:11:33.950 --> 00:11:36.082
We're going.
Don't go out, okay?
00:11:36.530 --> 00:11:37.758
Esti!
00:12:33.734 --> 00:12:34.918
Raquel!
00:12:36.754 --> 00:12:38.202
Raquel, wait!
00:14:36.794 --> 00:14:38.114
- Hello.
- Hello.
00:14:38.470 --> 00:14:41.510
Excuse me, do you know
where a girl called Raquel lives?
00:14:42.010 --> 00:14:45.170
- There are lots of Raquels.
- Her surname is Lopez.
00:14:45.694 --> 00:14:49.482
Lopez...
Oh, Carmen's daughter?
00:14:50.914 --> 00:14:55.850
Right up this road,
the first street on the left, number 14.
00:14:56.250 --> 00:14:57.974
Some call them riff-raff.
00:14:58.098 --> 00:14:59.810
- Thanks.
- You're welcome.
00:15:21.838 --> 00:15:24.422
- What's up, Rocio? What are you saying?
- Hey, Roci!
00:15:24.450 --> 00:15:25.982
Grab her, grab her.
00:15:26.006 --> 00:15:28.282
Stop fucking bothering me!
Get off!
00:15:28.306 --> 00:15:30.134
- Get off me!
- Leave her, leave her.
00:15:30.238 --> 00:15:32.350
Fucking hell, you clown.
00:15:33.238 --> 00:15:34.746
- Get off, get off.
- Grab her!
00:15:34.790 --> 00:15:36.750
Come here, bitch.
00:15:37.238 --> 00:15:38.462
Relax.
00:15:55.018 --> 00:15:56.650
There's another one there!
00:16:03.706 --> 00:16:05.742
Excuse me, can I use your bathroom?
00:16:05.770 --> 00:16:07.470
It's at the top of the stairs.
00:16:30.874 --> 00:16:33.354
- Sweetie!
- What a bastard!
00:16:33.730 --> 00:16:36.090
It's your dad.
I hear you've been a bad girl.
00:16:36.442 --> 00:16:38.750
Open, open.
00:16:40.606 --> 00:16:44.126
- Hey, stop banging on the door.
- I'm not leaving till she opens.
00:16:44.286 --> 00:16:45.706
- Open!
- No, no!
00:16:45.730 --> 00:16:49.202
- Careful with the door.
- That door is resistant, Juliana.
00:16:50.642 --> 00:16:52.454
Stop it, please.
Stop that banging!
00:16:52.546 --> 00:16:54.018
Relax, Juliana.
00:16:54.118 --> 00:16:56.846
It's all right.
We're just leaving.
00:16:57.394 --> 00:16:58.722
Take it easy.
00:17:07.582 --> 00:17:10.174
Hey, hey, hey!
What are you doing?
00:17:10.914 --> 00:17:12.282
Hey, what is this?
00:17:12.694 --> 00:17:15.594
Hey, guys, it's my sister's friend.
00:17:16.582 --> 00:17:19.266
- Is she crazy?
- She's freaking out, it's normal.
00:17:20.082 --> 00:17:21.666
What's your name?
00:17:24.350 --> 00:17:27.662
- Esti...
- Esti, you gave him a real pasting, eh?
00:17:27.774 --> 00:17:29.310
You're tough.
00:17:30.098 --> 00:17:32.638
Look, we're not going to do anything.
00:17:33.906 --> 00:17:36.474
It's a game.
You've freaked out and that's all, okay?
00:17:37.898 --> 00:17:40.078
- What about Rocio?
- What Rocio?
00:17:41.898 --> 00:17:43.030
Your cousin.
00:17:43.058 --> 00:17:45.330
She's partying in the square
with everyone.
00:17:46.078 --> 00:17:48.190
She's fine.
She made a scene, that's all.
00:17:49.030 --> 00:17:51.406
I swear we're not going to do anything.
00:17:51.734 --> 00:17:54.194
Come with us.
My sister is there with all her friends.
00:18:01.086 --> 00:18:03.294
- Sorry.
- No worries.
00:18:04.670 --> 00:18:05.938
Come on.
00:18:06.142 --> 00:18:08.474
- Come on, go and play on the street.
- You sure?
00:18:08.498 --> 00:18:09.986
Yes.
00:18:10.538 --> 00:18:11.934
Come on, guys.
Let's go.
00:18:15.442 --> 00:18:17.622
- Goodbye.
- Kiss, kiss Juliana, sorry.
00:18:17.646 --> 00:18:18.942
- Bye.
- Happy holiday, Juliana.
00:18:18.966 --> 00:18:21.418
Bye, enjoy yourselves.
Some rest I've had.
00:18:21.454 --> 00:18:22.966
- Have a good day.
- You too.
00:18:22.994 --> 00:18:26.350
- Sorry.
- It's fine, have a good time.
00:18:26.374 --> 00:18:27.654
Out you go.
00:18:36.194 --> 00:18:37.562
Are we going or what?
00:18:41.682 --> 00:18:42.922
Come on then.
00:18:50.082 --> 00:18:52.026
What a pasting that girl gave you,
eh, faggot?
00:18:52.050 --> 00:18:53.946
- Shut up now.
- Oh, sorry.
00:18:54.514 --> 00:18:56.194
It's always the same with you, man.
00:18:56.266 --> 00:18:58.078
- No worries. It's cool.
- Here, want some?
00:18:58.102 --> 00:18:59.454
Okay then.
00:19:05.850 --> 00:19:07.766
I've recorded stuff.
00:19:07.858 --> 00:19:09.634
I saw it, what a fucking wild one.
00:19:43.450 --> 00:19:45.722
You Raul, forget about that girl, man.
00:19:46.998 --> 00:19:49.102
Hey...
Are you okay?
00:19:51.582 --> 00:19:52.762
Hey...
00:19:56.854 --> 00:19:58.042
Yes.
00:20:02.366 --> 00:20:04.358
We're not going to do anything.
