Viejos Malditos is a sharp drama with a touch of dark humor that introduces us to Elías, a recently widowed, gruff, and ill-tempered old man who thought life couldn’t get any worse... until the cat arrived. Sick, exhausted, and stuck in his worst streak, Elías must not only cope with his inevitable decline but also with a scruffy, noisy feline that has decided to turn his nights—and those of the entire neighborhood—into a hellish concert of meows.
