Synopsis
In the middle of the Colombian coffee region, Aribada, the resurrected monster, meets Las Traviesas, a group of indigenous transwomen from the Embera tribes. The magical, the dreamlike and the performative coexist in their unique world - an aesthetic and spiritual universe in which documentary and fiction merge into a transcultural narrative. Enchanted by the beauty and power of their jais (spirits), Aribada decides to join Las Traviesas in creating their own trans*futurist community.

Synopsis
Udo Kier dies his way through film history. He screams, falls, lies, is cut into pieces,
shot or commits suicide. Again and again his empty gaze, again and again his rigid body.
In 54 years as an actor, Udo Kier played in more than 170 feature films, 120 series
episodes and 50 short films. More than 70 times Udo Kier tried to give an expression to
dying and death. In Staging Death, these representations of death merge into a montage
of the most diverse shots, film formats, special effects and sound designs.
“Directors are now thinking increasingly strained about what new ways they can kill me.
[…] At some point, somebody would have to make a montage of all my film deaths.“ Udo
Kier (Interview Subway Magazine #145, December 1999)
