EL CONDE
EL CONDE is a pitch-black horror comedy from Pablo Larraín (JACKIE, NO, SPENCER) that imagines a parallel universe where dictator Augusto Pinochet still roams the Chilean countryside — as a vampire. A symbol of fascism, he lives in a ruined mansion in the cold, southern tip of South America. There, he feeds his appetite for evil to sustain his existence. After 250 years of life, Pinochet decides to stop drinking blood and abandon the privilege of eternal life; he can no longer bear that the world remembers him as a thief. Despite the disappointing and opportunistic nature of his family, he finds new inspiration through an unexpected relationship to continue a life of vital and counterrevolutionary passion.
