Kill the Jockey

Kill the Jockey (El jockey, 2024) is an Argentine crime-comedy you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Luis Ortega and starring Nahuel Pérez Biscayart opposite Úrsula Corberó.

Remo is a gifted jockey in steady self-destruct mode. His partner Abril — also racing professionally — is pregnant and hasn't decided whether to keep the baby or the career. On top of that, a businessman named Sirena once pulled Remo out of serious trouble and now wants something back: a prized horse was lost because of Remo, and Sirena is the kind of man who collects on debts. Pérez Biscayart, best known internationally for BPM (Beats Per Minute), plays Remo as someone falling apart with a certain reckless grace.

Ortega sets the whole thing in Buenos Aires' underground with a visual energy closer to hallucination than standard racetrack noir — the film doesn't behave like a thriller, and that's exactly what makes it interesting. Stream Kill the Jockey (2024) online on iFILM.
