The film's director, David Pérez Sañudo, and actress Patricia López Arnaiz have skillfully woven together a narrative that humanizes and critiques the societal structures that allowed violence against women to thrive.
One of the most striking aspects of "The Harvester" is its deliberate avoidance of gratuitous violence.
