PEPE

In the organizer's words:

Feature film - DR, NA, D, F 2024 - 122' - OmU

Director: Nelson Carlos de Los Santos Arias

Probably the first movie in history to be narrated by the ghost of a dead hippopotamus. Pepe the pachyderm is abducted from his African homeland to Colombia with four fellow hippos to live out his life in the private zoo of narco king Pablo Escobar. When the zoo is dissolved, the hippos are taken to the nearby Río Magdalena, where they multiply magnificently - which the local fishermen don't like at all. A crazy, innovative film trip from Dominican director Nelson Carlo de Los Santos Arias.

All about the power of images in film, pop culture, art and society. At FILM FESTIVAL COLOGNE from October 17-24, 2024 and always online.

*Editorial Note: As the Rausgegangen team, we take a long-term view of the debate and criticism surrounding FILM FESTIVAL COLOGNE. We take this debate very seriously. For us, the following is fundamentally clear: We reject any form of toxic behavior in the workplace and actively position ourselves against it. But what we do: We recommend content. We stand behind the filmmakers, the artists and the works. Regardless of politics, we want to recommend films and give you the opportunity to get to know the festival and its program. That's why you'll find the FILM FESTIVAL COLOGNE content on our website.
