Synopsis
A Man of Action (Un hombre de acción, 2022) is a Spanish drama you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Javier Ruiz Caldera. It follows Lucio Urtubia — a bricklayer and anarchist from Navarre who picked a fight with one of the biggest banks in America. Juan José Ballesta carries the title role.
Postwar Paris is the stage. By day Urtubia lays bricks; by night he forges Citibank traveler's checks and funnels the cash to militants, refugees and anyone the system has written off. The con runs for years and stings the bank harder than any heist could. Police close in, comrades cut corners, and a partner he loves keeps asking him to walk away. He won't.
Caldera skips the saint routine and gives us a stubborn man who genuinely believed robbing bankers was honest work. The film borrows from the real "anarchist Robin Hood" but plays loose with the record, closer to a caper than a biopic. It lands best with anyone who roots for the lone holdout against the machine and dislikes being lectured about it. Stream A Man of Action (2022) online on iFILM.
