Movie in Palma: ‘Digger’ by Alejandro González Iñárritu
Cineciutat
Description
CineCiutat screens Digger, the new dark comedy-drama from acclaimed Mexican filmmaker Alejandro González Iñárritu, from Friday, 2 October 2026. This Movie in Palma runs for 128 minutes and is presented in its original version with Spanish subtitles, bringing Iñárritu back to the big screen with a story centred on power, ego and a rapidly approaching catastrophe.
The film follows the most powerful man in the world as he launches into a frantic mission to convince everyone that he can save humanity. The problem is that the looming disaster is one he has set in motion himself, creating the basis for a story that CineCiutat classifies as a comedy-drama.
Digger marks another feature from Iñárritu, the director behind films including Amores Perros, Babel, Birdman and The Revenant. His work has often moved between intimate character studies and much larger questions surrounding ambition, identity and human behaviour, and Digger places those themes against a more satirical backdrop.
For anyone looking for a Movie in Palma beyond mainstream dubbed releases, CineCiutat continues its focus on films presented in their original language. Digger will be shown in English with Spanish subtitles (VOSE) and carries a +16 age classification.
The screening also fits naturally into the wider Art Events Mallorca calendar. CineCiutat operates as a non-profit, community-run cinema and regularly combines new releases with independent films, classics, festivals, discussions and other cultural programming in Palma.
At 128 minutes, Digger gives Iñárritu plenty of room for its collision of political power, personal ambition and dark humour. The central premise keeps the focus on a man desperate to present himself as humanity’s saviour while facing the consequences of his own actions.
Digger opens at CineCiutat on Friday, 2 October 2026. CineCiutat currently lists the film as coming soon and confirms that advance ticket sales are available, but the individual screening times have not yet been published on the film page, so I would not add an unverified time.
