Los creyentes (2026)

Los Creyentes, known in English as The Truthers, is a Spanish thriller directed by Dani de la Orden that premiered at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival. The narrative centers on Martín, a man whose life unravels when he begins to suspect that his wife's death was not an accident but a murder orchestrated by those closest to him. As he digs deeper into the truth, he finds himself isolated from friends and family who insist she died naturally, forcing him to question his own sanity while racing against time.
