To Kill the Beast
Directed by Agustina San Martín
Produced by Caudillo Cine, Estúdio Giz
A moody, mythologically-inflected coming-of-age mystery set in a lush jungle borderland, where a young woman's search for her brother intertwines with supernatural danger and sexual self-discovery.
Emilia arrives at her Aunt Ines’ hostel at the Argentina-Brazil border looking for her long lost brother. In this luxuriant jungle, a dangerous beast believed to be the spirit of an evil man taking the form of different animals seems to be roaming around. On a journey to sexual awakening, Emilia will have to confront her past in order to kill the beast.
