THE DEVIL'S TAIL: When Eddie disappears in the Yucatan Pete abandons his predictable life in Toronto, charging off without a plan to find his best friend, a charming Texan never-do-well. Arriving in Mexico with girlfriend Zoe and pal Dave, he is plunged into a world far darker than the familiar tourist images of Cancun. During his search Pete reunites with childhood love Kate, now Eddie's girlfriend, and befriends a retired Border Patrolman from Texas who is troubled by the disappearance of several local Mexicans connected to Eddie. As the number of the missing climbs, Pete uncovers more about his own past and his friend than he can bear. Blackly humorous, this is a raw, complex, human drama set against Mayan Ruins and stunning beaches in a beautiful country wrestling with its own history of racism and its convoluted relationship with "Norteamericanos".
"Truly great films should push you further and show you something about yourself that makes you question things. This is one of those films."
-Trista DeVries, Toronto Film Scene
***The director Christopher Comrie will be in attendance to conduct an informal Q&A post-screening
