A man discovers that Spanish immigration law enables him to blackmail an immigrant without a residence permit who has just come to live in the same block of flats as him. Constantly threatened with deportation, this immigrant has no choice but to obey his neighbour’s every whim, and the two enter into a master and slave relationship. In Animales nocturnos, Juan Mayorga, one of the most prolific and successful authors of the day, explores a world of shadows and secrets, a world whose inhabitants – like wary, mistrusting animals in a zoo – live a life of lies amid artificial landscapes.
