Navajeros (1980)

Eloy de la Iglesia

Unpolished, unforgiving, unforgettable. Navajeros is a raw, explosive portrait of youth crime, poverty, and alienation in post-Franco Spain.

Based on the life of the notorious delinquent El Jaro, this cult classic follows a boy growing up in a world without prospects.

Survival means stealing, running, fighting. But behind the adrenaline and chaos lies a searing indictment of a system that fails to protect its youth.

Navajeros is more than a crime drama—it’s a statement, a time capsule, and a tribute to the lost generation of the 1980s.

The film blends brutal realism with sharp social critique, without ever resorting to moralism.
