A satirical look at Colombia’s bloody and painful recent history. In the mid 1980's, Pablo Escobar was the world's most powerful drug dealer, and the third richest man in the world. He built a two–thousand-acre secure compound, deep in the Colombian jungle, complete with a lavish mansion and guest houses, stables, nightclub, a full-size concrete dinosaur park, and a private zoo housing hundreds of exotic animals, including two hippos that were settled into a man-made lake. Following his assassination in 1994, Escobar's assets were seized by the Colombian Government. 'Hacienda Napoles' was pillaged and destroyed: now only ruins remain and the animals have all disappeared. Except for the hippos. Far from starving to death, they have thrived and multiplied, making local fisherman fear for their lives and livelihoods. Pablo’s Hippos follows the 30-year career of the hippos -from their arrival from Africa through their gradual development into the new lords of the rivers - a parallel to Colombia’s own socio-economic adaptation and survival through 30 years of narco-trafficking and times of civil war and struggle. A story of unimaginable wealth, unabated sex, political intrigue, death, destruction, corruption, treachery and the ultimate legacy of a life dedicated to crime. 580 Verzio Film Festival Submission 655 4 Documentary films 260 Colombia : |bAmber Entertainment ; Drive Thru Pictures, |c2010. 041 engspa |jeng 952 |00 |10 |40 |50 |70 |8FL |992669FL |bFL |d2016-11-25 |l0 |r2016-11-25 |w2016-11-25 |yDVD-ROM 952 |00 |10 |2ddc |40 |6FL_RECORD_2647_000000000000000 |70 |8FL |9155059FL |bFL |d2021-11-04 |l0 |oFL Record 2647 |pHU_OSA_10000413.mp4 |r2021-11-04 |w2021-11-04 |yDIGIFILM |zAccess Copy, MP4 format |cAudio Visual 920 01 WokKK2or 966 True |bHU_OSA_10000413 |cDigitally Anywhere / With Registration
