About Pepe:
Pepe is the strange story of the first and last hippo killed in the Americas, recounted from beyond the grave. A voice that claims to be from a hippopotamus. A voice that doesn’t understand the perception of time. A film like no other. Filmmaker Magazine calls it: “a cinematic UFO perched somewhere between hard facts and dreams” and “a work that celebrates imagination as the ultimate means to emancipate ourselves.”
