Growing up in the Mexican countryside, the orphaned son of a sicario struggles to escape his father’s dangerous legacy… and fate. Astrid Rondero and Fernanda Valadez’s haunting followup to Identifying Features (WFF 2020) won a Grand Jury Prize at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival. “Thunderously demonstrates why Valdez and Rondero stand among those soon to be regarded as the new masters of Mexican cinema” (Indiewire).
