Feral

Mexico | 2018 | 101 minutes | Director: Andrés Kaiser

The mountains of Oaxaca harbor the remains of a ravaged and burnt shelter, once home to a psychoanalyst priest who used it to look after savage children, trying to re-integrate them into society. Through videotape diaries and interviews, the truth of what happened is shockingly revealed.

Andrés Kaiser is a new and distinctively remarkable director that has created a significant impression on his audiences and critics alike. In his first ever, Austin’s Fantastic Fest appearance, Kaiser provides a fresh new perspective for the cinematic world. A member of Vicente Leñero’s writing workshop since 2009, Andrés studied screenwriting and film editing in Madrid. As an editor, he worked in HBO's Capadocia and Lourdes Grobet's Bering: Balance and Resistance. His debut film FERAL was received by critics with an overwhelming acclaim for his work.
