Wakolda Trailer

Following World War II, German Nazi doctor Josef Mengele is being hunted down by Allied forces for being one of the perpetrators of inhumane human experimentation at Auschwitz. He's hiding out with an Argentine family on the other side of the world, masking his identity as he is welcomed into their lives. It's there he meets Lilith; Eva and Enzo's young daughter who appears to be growing at an abnormally slow rate. He explains to the family that it is his life's work to improve cattle breeding, while taking a massive interest in Lilith's genetics. The parents are worried about his relationship with Lilith - and more importantly, about just how far he's taking his interest. When a female photographer shows it, it becomes more clear that they are dealing with a man who's not all he says he is.

'Wakolda' (also referred to as 'The German Doctor') is a tense award-winning historical drama based on the true story of Mengele's journey into hiding. The movie is adapted from the best-selling 2011 book of the same name which was written by the film's director Lucía Puenzoc ('XXY', 'The Fish Child'). It is set to be released in the UK this summer on August 29th 2014.
