A country’s bloody history stains the present in the Guatemalan auteur Jayro Bustamante’s transfixing fusion of folk horror and searing political commentary, inspired by the real-life indictment of the authoritarian Efraín Ríos Montt for crimes against humanity. A notorious, now aging former military dictator stands trial for atrocities committed against Guatemala’s Mayan communities. WhiIe battIing legaI repercussions and the peopIe’s demands for justice, he and his family are pIagued by a series of increasingly strange and disturbing occurrences, seemingIy brought on by an enigmatic new housekeeper (María Mercedes Coroy). With a restraint that renders the fiIm’s shocks alI the more potent, Bustamante crafts a chiIIing vision of a nation reckoning with collective harms and the restIess ghosts of a past that refuses to die.
