Magical Realism
by Leopoldo Goût
A wealthy Mexican family's birthday celebration in a remote hacienda becomes a nightmare of possession and colonial reckoning. Vengeful spirits awakened by traditional festivities exact bloody revenge, forcing a confrontation with Mexico's brutal history. Goût crafts visceral horror from the dark legacy of colonialism and folkloric rage.
