From the award-winning, internationally acclaimed screenwriter of "Amores perros," "21 Grams," and "Babel," "A Sweet Scent of Death" is Guillermo Arriaga's tale of deception, passion, and violence fused together by the tragic killing of a young girl in a small Mexican village.

Early one morning in a deserted field, Ramon Castanos is confronted with the dead body of Adela, a lovely young girl, whom he had only admired from afar. Within an hour, rumor of the death of Ramon Castanos's girlfriend has spread to every corner of Loma Grande. This powder-trail of gossip ignites further violence when the villagers, thirsty for revenge, cast about for answers and hit upon the nomadic Jose Echeverri-Berriozabal, known as "the Gypsy." Honor then demands that Ramon must now live out his imaginary past in a brutal reality and prove his manhood by avenging Adela's cruel fate.

Maria (Jennifer Lawrence) is a teenager searching for the mother who abandoned her when she was two days old. The various strands and connections between the characters are gradually revealed throughout the film in Arriaga's signature style, previously seen in his collaborations with director Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu: 'Amores Perros', '21 Grams' and 'Babel'.

Tras el suicidio de su mejor amigo, Manuel se ve acosado por la sombra de la enfermedad mental de aquel, por su mundo de violencia y por la tortuosa relacion sentimental con su novia, que fue inicialmente pareja de Gregorio, el amigo muerto; citas no cumplidas, extranos mensajes y la sombra de un policIa que aparece como vengador de una infidelidad que lo llevo a la locura.

Escrita con la agilidad de un guion cinematografico y con un fondo de personajes urbanos que se mueven en los margenes de la delincuencia, esta novela confirma a su autor como uno de los mejores escritores mexicanos de las Ultimas generaciones. Con tono existencial que da cuenta de los aspectos mas crudos de la sociedad de nuestro tiempo, esta obra de suspenso trae personajes bien construidos, atractivos y que se ven inmersos en una atmosfera cercana tanto a la novela macabra como a la prosa de Franz Kafka.
