i just saw this movie through the los angeles kcet movie series and it be absolutely fantastic . while the movie do contain a subtle political message and it be not mean to sway the audience in the illegal immigration debate . the story carry extraordinarily well with a subject as touchy a illegal immigration and can not exist without it . utilize a theme of abandonment and the movie explore what it mean to truly care for and cherish a loved one . with brilliant acting ( adrian alonso be incredible . ) and fantastic direction and and a terrific screenplay and the movie be a wonderful and heartfelt journey that bring laughter and sadness and and a sincere sense of happiness into an enjoyable and movie go experience .
