  • La Résidence

Release tomorrow : MURDER ME, MONSTER, directed by Alejandro Fadel

Alejandro Fadel presents his new feature film “Murder me, monster” developped at La Résidence in 2014.

Rural police officer Cruz investigates the bizarre case of a headless woman’s body found in a remote region by the Andes Mountains. David, the husband of Cruz’s lover, Francisca, becomes the prime suspect and is sent to a local mental hospital. He blames the crime to the inexplicable and brutal appearance of the “Monster.” Cruz stumbles on a mysterious theory involving geometric landscapes, mountain motorcyclists and a mantra stuck in his head: Murder Me, Monster.

In theaters on 15th May. With Victor Lopez, Esteban Bigliardi and Tania Casciani.

MURDER ME, MONSTER has been selected at Un Certain Regard during the 71st Cannes Film Festival.
