Las armas secretas reunites five stories that are part of the best representation of this genre. With the excellence of stories like “Cartas de mamá”, “Los buenos servicios” and “Las armas secretas”, two masterpieces stand out: “Las babas del diablo” (adapted to film by Michelangelo Antonioni as Blow up) and “El perseguidor”, perhaps the most perfect and moving tribute to a jazz genius, Charlie Parker.
