About the film
Pepe is a 2024 drama film written, co-produced, co-edited and directed by Nelson Carlo De Los Santos Arias. The film starring Jhon Narváez and Sor María Ríos, is voice of Pepe, the first and last hippo killed in the Americas, who appears as ghost and recounts his story with the powerful oral tradition of these communities. The film is an international co-production between Dominican Republic, Namibia, Germany, and France, and had its world premiere at the 74th Berlin International Film Festival on 20 February, where it competed for the Golden Bear and won Silver Bear for Best Director. It was selected as the Dominican entry for the Best International Feature Film at the 98th Academy Awards, but it was not nominated.

Each of you opens Pepe on your own account. Herae keeps the two players in sync, so a pause or a skip happens for both of you, and puts a video call in the corner of the film so you can see each other react.
