A young hippopotamus known by the name Pepe, which the media gave it, was killed in the jungle of Colombia but returns in the form of a ghost. It is a hippo’s voice, or so it says. It has no sense of time, only of the past that haunts it. “Is that noise mine? What is this thing I use to make it?” The animal is certain of one thing: it is no longer alive. It was the first and last of its kind to be slain in the Americas. We are drawn into a world of many tales, each containing more tales within. With seriousness and humor, honesty and trickery, images and sounds convey the powerful dialogue of places where creatures like Pepe perished without ever grasping the true nature of their situation.
