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.

I didn’t bother trying to understand the plot, this is a treat for your senses.

Intensita pero preciosa, una experiencia como pocas. La muestra perfecta de que en la animación el límite no existe.

Confused and disturbed but absolutely entranced. I am in awe of the artistic vision, and the extreme visceral reaction. Haunting 😥

A disturbing one of a kind experience but fails to keep your attention the whole time

It looked like an adaptation of a classic tale but it ended up a nightmare. Delightful, creative, smart and unsettling. Not for everyone.

Like watching an art installation, incredible and haunting.

Really cool animation but I didn't find the story very gripping.

Incredible animation but I didn't find the story very gripping.

For better experience read the story behind the movie

My brain hurts. It's beautifully strange, artistically grotesque — atmosphere with upsetting political commentary — wouldn't watch again.
