[REC] is the horror movie that marked a before and after in Spanish filmmaking after its 2007 release. The wager made by Julio Fernández, producer of Filmax, redefined this genre both in and outside of Spain with an innovative approach directed by Jaume Balagueró and Paco Plaza. 15 years later, the protagonists of this milestone analyse the keys to the film. This documentary, full of previously unseen images, declassifies the story and resuscitates the legend.
