Peter Martin, Managing Editor; Dallas, Texas (@peteramartin)

The first trailer for Desde Alla (From Afar) starts slowly, as a well-to-do, middle-aged man gets to know a street thug. It builds steadily from there, introducing a vibe of intensity that grows louder as the end draws near. 

Here's the official synopsis: 

Desde Alla (From Afar) is the shattering feature debut from Venezuelan writer-director Lorenzo Vigas. Set in Caracas' chaotic lower class communities, Vigas' turbulent story reveals the complex bond between two men worlds apart. A slow-burn psychological thriller. Production team including Guillermo Arriaga, Michel Franco, Gabriel Ripstein, Edgar Ramirez.

Alfredo Castro and Luis Silva star as the businessman and thug, respectively. The film has a trio of high-profile festival appearances set up: first at Venice this week, then at Toronto, and later this month at San Sebastián. You can watch the trailer below.
