Humanimal is a 2009 Chilean film by Francesc Morales.[1] The film is a fantasy horror film set on a world where animals have taken over humans. It depicts the story of how an innocent Turtle becomes corrupt, as he is exposed to sex and violence. The cast includes recognized Chilean actors such as Ramón Llao, Jenny Cavallo and Sebastián Layseca. Because most characters are animals, the film has absolutely no dialog, so it is considered one of the few modern silent films.
