Шаблон:Infobox film Anything for Bread (Шаблон:Lang-es) is a 1991 Spanish film directed by Enrique Urbizu and written by Luis Marías.

Premise

The film centres on an armed robbery within a bingo hall,[1] within a background in the underworld of drug dealing, sexual perversion, police corruption and a political assassination. Woven through this are the stories of two very different women from opposite backgrounds. Azucena is a robber fleeing the scene when she is picked up by a young woman, Verónica. Both are vulnerable, having been threatened and betrayed, and soon start fighting against each other to gain the proceeds of the robbery. As they get to know each other, they develop a mutual respect, and this helps them fight the dangerous men who are chasing them. The two women eventually become sisters-in-arms and keep the stolen money.[2]

Reception

It has also been called "a satisfactory thriller".[9]
