Love, ambition, redemption, revenge ... all these concepts are mixed in Black society, the film that for the first time focuses on the Chinese community of Catalonia.

"Yes, we mix black genre with social cinema. A look at people who live in neighborhoods in which they have no option," explains the director of the film, Ramon Térmens. "And, in this case, our protagonists make a rather crazy act, which is to steal from the Chinese mafia. From there a story is chained that does not stop. But being a film about theft, or its preparation, opts for the emotional point of view and focuses on the characters and what has taken them to that moment."
