Errementari: The Blacksmith (El herrero y el diablo) is a dark Basque folklore-inspired fantasy-horror about a reclusive blacksmith who has kept a fearsome demon chained inside his forge. When a young woman and a captured soldier threaten to reveal the town's buried secrets, the demon breaks free and a brutal, morally charged struggle erupts. Amid flames, iron clangs, and occult magic, villagers confront guilt, vengeance, and the possibility of mercy. The film blends visceral practical effects with mythic imagery and a bleak, atmospheric mood.
