El Club

Pablo Larraín |Drama

What are four priests doing at the end of the world? Living a humble life under the strict authority of Sister Mónica in a small house on the Chilean coast where they pray, eat dinner together, watch television, race dogs and take walks along the coastline. However, the priests’ apparent idyll is shattered one day when a new priest arrives to join their ‘club’. Soon after, a fisherman turns up and begins making awful accusations. A single shot is fired, and the priests find themselves confronted with a past they had long since suppressed. Pablo Larraín’s brilliantly dark drama takes a monographic and non-judgemental view of its protagonists, because the penitents don’t understand their punishment.
