On its surface, ‘Ca(r)milla’ appears to be an excerpt from a documentary about the daily life of the owner of a small landscaping business in Carapichaima. However, the business is quickly revealed to be a front – the owner, played by the filmmaker’s mother, Camilla, is a hybrid of a vampire and a soucouyant with her true trade being the import/export of Caribbean soil throughout the region and its diasporas. ‘Ca(r)milla’ is a braided essay featuring the voices of both Camilla and Dr. Patricia Vincent, a disgraced vampirologist.
