Camila is employed as a vet at a Panamanian zoo. She doesn’t have a work permit, her daughter is in New York, and her husband has turned into a crocodile.

Inspired by Fyodor Dostoevsky’s short story ‘Crocodile’ and director Marcela Heilbron’s time spent documenting dangerous border crossings in the jungle between Colombia and Panama, this fantastical portrait of faith in the face of horror mixes moments of high farce with a bracing sense of real-world anxiety. This is perhaps the only film you’ll see this year that tackles the migration crisis with a talking reptile.
