María, a girl from Colonia Dignidad, in Chile —a kind of sectarian community, tyrannically mastered by the ruthless Paul Schäfer, a German madman, religious fanatic and child predator, who would end up turning the place into a torture center at the service of the military dictatorship ruled by Augusto Pinochet—, is punished for having lost three pigs, so she decides to run away and take refuge in an abandoned house hidden in the forest.

FF2018 Day 2 - Movie 1: Chilean mixed media stop-motion animation equally haunting as it’s hypnotic. Often horrific yet so impressive conveying this maddening tale of isolation. Was so lost in the painstaking craft of this I often forgot what the story was about. Filmmakers indicated that a portion of this was done as a live museum installment. Definitely a favorite of the Fest and one I want to revisit.
