“Once upon a time there was a country within a country from where nobody could escape.”

AnimationHorrorDrama

After escaping from a religious colony in Chile, Maria seeks shelter in a mansion where she’s taken in by two pigs, its only inhabitants. Like in a stop-motion dream, the universe of the house reacts to her feelings. The animals slowly morph into humans and the house into a dark, menacing world.

VIBE

A deeply disturbing and surreal stop-motion nightmare. This film feels like a waking dream steeped in dread, where innocence is corrupted and escape offers no true solace. It’s a haunting, allegorical descent into psychological torment.
