Step into the haunting and hypnotic world of Cocote (2017), a visually striking drama from Dominican filmmaker Nelson Carlo de los Santos Arias. The film follows Alberto, a quiet gardener who returns to his rural hometown after his father’s murder, only to become trapped between grief, family expectations, religion, and the threat of revenge. Blending documentary realism with experimental cinematography, Cocote shifts between formats and rhythms to create an unforgettable portrait of violence, faith, and identity in the Dominican Republic. Winner of multiple international awards, the film is both deeply personal and boldly unconventional.
