Chatarra is a 1991 Spanish neo-noir film directed by Félix Rotaeta which stars Carmen Maura, Rosario Flores, and Mario Gas.
Hooker Zabu, living badly with her daughter, is upended by the appearance of a stalking cop claiming to be her daughter's father, and vowing to take them two ouf of the fringes.[1]
The film was produced by Avanti Films and Sabre TV.[2]
The film screened in competition at the 48th Venice International Film Festival in September 1991. It was released theatrically in Spain on 18 October 1991.
Ángel Fernández-Santos of El País deemed Chatarra to be an "uneven film, but with flashes of great cinema".[3]
Casimiro Torreiro of El País considered that, while not a perfect film, "with its faults and virtues, [''Chatarra''] nevertheless belongs to the line of independent films made with rigor and a good production design".[4]
