What happens when we die? This question drives a curious young Mexican boy to befriend a reclusive hermit whose extraordinary age and mysterious past hold intriguing answers. Set in a lush, mythical landscape, Xibalba Monster is a humorous and deeply moving exploration of life, death, and the natural world. Featuring a charismatic non-professional lead, the film masterfully weaves wonder, local folklore, and the rhythms of rural life, offering a tender portrait of human connection and the mysteries that shape us all.
