Our take

When a low-rank driver stops covering for his boss’s crimes, only one thing is in store: trouble. Alternating between Mexico’s vibrant nightlife and the dark corridors where the powerful puppeteer those around them, Gofer is as much a visual treat as a gripping exposé of a corrupt political elite.
