Xibalba Monster

Rogelio is 8 and has an odd family. His parents are never around, and he gets his best birthday gifts from his dentist. This summer he is sent away to his nanny’s hometown, nestled in the Yucatan jungle. Rogelio spends the excruciatingly hot days obsessing over “The Book of Spirits” which awakens in him visions and dreams of ghosts, but above all, of an old man who leaves a trace of death when passing by. Rogelio recounts this to his new Mayan friends, Lucio and Juanito, who say this man is not a dream, he is real and lives in the outskirts of town, he is known as the “Xibalba Monster”. Why these dreams? Rogelio starts to spy on the monster and lives an adventure that will change forever his view on life and death.
