Set in the current Mexican humanitarian crisis, this poignant drama tells the story of a woman’s search to find her son who disappeared en route to the US border.

This Sundance prizewinner tells the story of Magdalena (Hernández), who embarks on a journey in search of her son who disappeared en route to the US border. Traveling through the foreboding towns and landscapes of northern Mexico, she meets Miguel (Illescas), a young man recently deported from the US who is making his way home. The two accompany one another: Magdalena looking for her son, and Miguel eager to see his mother again in a territory where victims and aggressors ramble together. Set in the current Mexican humanitarian crisis, this poignant drama spotlights the country’s failed war against drug cartels, disappearances of migrants bound for the US, and the dangerous odyssey of those looking for missing family members.
