1992

In the end, it’s revealed that Victor, also known as the Curro Killer, was being manipulated by Victoria, a cunning figure who had orchestrated much of the revenge plot to cover up his own involvement in the past crimes. Victoria had originally seen the murder of Marga—one of the sex workers—as an opportunity to blackmail the others, using hidden cameras and ransom notes to extort money from them and start his own business. However, when the scheme failed, Victoria faked his own death and left Spain with the money he had accumulated, thinking he had escaped justice.

But Victor’s investigation uncovered Victoria’s lies. He found evidence that implicated Victoria’s presence at the scene of Marga’s murder, revealing him as the true mastermind behind the revenge killings. Driven by the truth and a desire for justice, Victor set out to confront and kill Victoria, ultimately turning him into ashes with the flames he had wielded as the Curro Killer. Victoria’s evil deeds deserved such a fitting end, as he had manipulated others for personal gain and covered up heinous crimes.

However, Victor’s quest for vengeance did not bring him peace. His allies, Amparo and Richi, who had helped cover up the past, eventually tracked down Victoria’s fleeing train. In a final act of justice, Amparo shot Victor when his flamethrower’s tank leaked, possibly killing him. The story concludes on a bittersweet note, with the authorities discovering Marga’s body and convicting those responsible for her murder, while her memory remains a tragic reminder of the darkness that festered behind the Seville Expo. The survivors, like Richi and Amparo, move on with their lives—Richi finding sobriety and Amparo deciding to pursue law—highlighting that some justice has been achieved, even if the pain of the past lingers. Ultimately, the film’s ending emphasizes that revenge can be both righteous and destructive, leaving viewers with a mix of closure and lingering questions about whether justice truly prevails.
