Can you upgrade to latest version (1.1.2)?

From your stacktrace:

:erlang.element(1, :error)

You can see the commit I linked and screenshotted changes a line to return a tuple instead of an int. I think this is at the heart of your issue.

Thanks @peaceful-james!

We were seeing the same issue and upgrading tzdata resolved it for us.
