Bestia

10/10. This short film manages to expose a fascist in the most beautiful and disturbing way. The power of symbolism down to the smallest detail in the animation is spectacular. A Masterpiece from Chile, from Latin America, from the 21st century, from the world, from History.

This is really dark and twisted and based on a true story which is even more disturbing.

I think this was masterfully made. I was pretty impressed. I thought I already had my pick for the Oscar winner but now I'm not too sure.

I loved the use of all the different textures as well. It just worked to create this dark nightmare world that looked so cute and innocent from the outside.

I'd say the best way to watch this movie is to go in blind, it was a wild ride.

I am quite impressed with the quality of this stop-motion animation and floored by the contents within it. It is a very powerful short story about totalitarianism and fascism. Totally blew my mind this animation was based on real-world events from the country of Chile. Ingrid was a real person.

Very interesting one. Not only about the meanings of it, but also in terms of what the director was able to do in terms of creating tension and putting really horror vibes to it, with a great utilisation of sound and some interesting visual choices.

But let's be honest, if this was a long feature film, The Academy would never look into it! But nice to know that there are branches working well.

Inspired by true events . This one tells us a story of Íngrid Olderöck , who is a cruel Chilean torturer during military dictatorship. At first , I didn't get the theme and not sure where it is heading to. Half way through it, Hugo Covarrubias started revealing the real picture by showing us the brutal side of the story which genuinely shook me. Still, I didn't get the whole gist and after finishing the short, quickly Googled the real story pertaining to Ingrid. Now, looking back at the short, I could literally feel the beast vibe and how she brutally tortured victims using her dog, sheer madness.

In just 15 minutes, Hugo delivered powerful , raw , dark , real content by using stop motion animation which further enhanced the experience. He brilliantly created the beast world with his animation work, I'm highly amazed and impressed. Even the score is eerie and perfectly blended with the flow. Great!! Just jump in blindly and give it a shot. I hope it takes the osacr home.
