Traversing the Argentine backcountry in their rundown RV, middle-aged hucksters Myriam and Roger exploit the talents of the preternaturally gifted Anika, a young girl who can communicate with animals. Dropping flyers and arranging local TV interviews, the trio hustle their way into the homes of doting owners looking to understand their pets’ thoughts and fears. Whether it be with a dog, a cat or even an adorable hedgehog, Anika’s connection seems real, even if the grift sometimes seems suspect. Shot in delicate black and white and recalling Peter Bogdanovich’s PAPER MOON, Iván Fund’s warmly comic road-trip film won the Silver Bear Jury Prize at this year’s Berlin International Film Festival.
Part of the AFI Latin American Film Festival. For the full lineup visit: AFI.com/Silver/LAFF.
