Director of photography, Nicolás Wong Díaz ; editing, Gustavo Matheu, Jayro Bustamante ; music, Pascual Reyes.Mariá Mercedes Coroy, Margarita Kénefic, Sabrina De La Hoz, Julio Díaz, María Telón, Ayla-Elea Hurtado, Juan Pablo Olyslager.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 Maya communities. While battling legal repercussions and the people's demands for justice, he and his family are plagued by a series of increasingly strange and disturbing occurrences, seemingly brought on by an enigmatic new housekeeper. With a restraint that renders the film's shocks all the more potent, Bustamante crafts a chilling vision of a national reckoning with collective harms and the restless ghosts of a past that refuses to die.DVD ; NTSC ; region 1 ; 5.1 Dolby Digital surround ; 2.39:1 widescreen.- Subjects: Feature films.; Fiction films.; Historical films.; Horror films.; Political films.; Thrillers (Motion pictures); War films.; Denial of justice; Genocide; Llorona (Legendary character); Mayas; Retribution; Spirits; War crimes; War criminals; Crímenes de guerra; Genocidio;
