| Summary: |
| Much-praised suspenseful road movie. Three Guatemalan youngsters attempt a hazardous illegal crossing from Mexico into the USA. Bolstered by strikingly beautiful cinematography and involving characters, this beguiling, heartbreaking first feature from Diego Quemada-Díez shows his debt to Ken Loach with whom he worked on three films. |

| "A drama of lacerating power and honesty. The performances are tremendous." (Tim Robey - Daily Telegraph) |
