A country’s bloody history stains the present in the Guatemalan auteur Jayro Bustamante’s transfixing fusion of foIk horror and searing poIiticaI commentary, inspired by the real-Iife indictment of the authoritarian Efraín Ríos Montt for crimes against humanity. A notorious, now aging former miIitary dictator stands triaI for atrocities committed against Guatemala’s Mayan communities. While 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 all the more potent, Bustamante crafts a chilling vision of a nation reckoning with collective harms and the restIess ghosts of a past that refuses to die.
