To avoid prison, he plays both sides with the police until he is trapped in a spiral of suspicion where the informant always pays.<\/span><\/i><\/b>\r\n\r\n<b><i><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/b>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">Israel Cruz, a fifty-two-year-old man, ill and suffocating under debt, struggles to keep his daughter Marina afloat, trapped in addiction. To get money, he becomes involved in a business that far exceeds him: the trafficking of homemade explosives that different gangs in the south of Madrid use to plan increasingly ambitious heists. Within days, Cruz becomes a key piece in a criminal network that threatens to blow apart the city\u2019s southern belt.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">In this territory, the perfect breeding ground for violence takes shape: neighborhood crime, low-level informants, and police officers willing to cross lines. Cruz acts as an intermediary between the explosive manufacturers and the criminal gangs. His main client is Samuel Vargas, a thug who uses the material to blow up ATMs with growing sophistication. At the same time, Cruz plays both sides: while selling explosives, he feeds information to Santos, a police officer who might help him avoid a pending sentence for an old crime.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">The fragile balance collapses when Cruz sells explosives to a far-right group and decides to inform on them to gain favor with the police. The operation ends in a failed shootout in Vistalegre and unleashes an internal manhunt in the criminal underworld to uncover who the snitch is. Samuel Vargas\u2019s circle begins to suspect everyone\u2014especially Cruz.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">As the police identify Cruz as the link in the explosives trafficking network, his personal life falls apart: Marina disappears after emptying his apartment to get money for drugs. Even so, Cruz keeps going, trapped in the double game and scrambling for cash by any means necessary, until no one trusts him anymore.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">The criminal jobs keep piling up until Cruz believes he has found a way out: a fixed cockfight through which he hopes to make fast money and escape, at least for a moment, from his misery. He wins. He smiles. And on his way home, he is shot in the back of the head. A cold, inevitable, almost administrative settling of scores, in a world where the informant always pays.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<i><span lang=\"EN-US\">Low-Bred Roosters<\/span><\/i><span lang=\"EN-US\"> is a story about losers who believe themselves heroes. A classic noir\u2014dry, tense, and relentless\u2014with a <i>quinqui<\/i> atmosphere that turns the housing blocks, bars, and streets of southern Madrid into a battlefield.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<b><span lang=\"EN-US\">RELEVANT INFORMATION:<\/span><\/b><span lang=\"EN-US\"> Gloria Trinidad is a Spanish writer, poet, and playwright.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<i><span lang=\"EN-US\">Low-Bred Roosters<\/span><\/i><span lang=\"EN-US\"> is her first novel: a noir with strong audiovisual potential, centered on a pure antihero and set in the neighborhoods of southern Madrid\u2014an ecosystem that is highly visual, rich in symbolism, and functions as a character in its own right.
