Enjoyed the Film

Really enjoyed the film--especially it's connection to Dominican folklore and the surprise ending. The plot was well though-out and the visuals were stunning. The Dominican film industry has had several break-out pieces in the last decade, and Jupía adds to this growing legacy.

Jupia explores the Taino myth of a female ghost(s)--Jupia--that silently wanders the mountains of the Dominican Republic at night, occasionally taking on the figure of other humans (living or dead).

The plot features a policeman's search for his missing wife and daughter while using the myth of the Jupia to explore themes of gender-based violence, agism, and obsession.
