After living for over two centuries, Augusto Pinochet is a vampire ready to die… but the vultures around him won't let him go without one last bite.
Pablo Larraín’s creative historical revisionism in El Conde transforms Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet into a vampiric icon of fascism, continuing to feed on society’s most vulnerable in his old age while descendants, lovers, and organised religion seek to profit off his legacy, giving this monochrome political satire a viciously witty bite.
In El Conde, Pablo Larraín portrays the persistence of evil — an immortal force that feeds on itself like a vampire to survive. For him, history must repeat itself to remind us how dangerous, immoral, corrupt, and monstrous we can be.
