A nightmarish psychological descent into the fractured mind of a secret police agent under a military dictatorship, using stop-motion abstraction to expose complicity, trauma, and moral collapse.

Inspired by real events, "Bestia" enters the life of a secret police agent in the military dictatorship in Chile. The relationship with her dog, her body, her fears and frustrations, reveal a macabre fracture in her mind and a country.
