Adrián (12), the son of a Venezuelan domestic worker, goes on an outing with the children of his mother’s employers. They get lost in the forest. Back at home, Adrián feels ostracized from the rest. This feeling leads him through a dreamy and voyeuristic journey of belonging.
Reviews
Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
