Pepe

A voice claims to be the ghost of Pepe, the first and only hippopotamus ever killed in the Americas. That voice narrates his remarkable story, starting in Southern Africa and moving to South America. It recounts his ownership by Colombian drug baron Pablo Escobar, which led to the start of a hippopotamus population in Colombia. Winner of Silver Bear for Best Director at the Berlinale, this genre-bending film will illuminate you to a unique tale from Colombian history. <i>This screening is the closing event of Colombia Presente!, a showcase of Colombian cinema organised by CinemaAttic, a collective which screens independent Latin American and Iberian cinema across Scotland through a wide series of festivals and events.
