Award-winning documentary AFTER THE MURDER OF ALBERT LIMA tells the story of a son obsessed with capturing his father's killer. Paul Lima has spent over a decade seeking justice for his slain father, Albert. Though convicted, Albert's murderer has remained free in Honduras. After years of the legal system failing him, Paul takes the unorthodox step of hiring two bounty hunters to travel with him to Honduras to track down and capture his father's killer. This riveting, and, at times, darkly comedic documentary explores both the importance of family and the dangers of taking the law into your own hands.

Robert Daniels New York Times In its quest for entertainment value, this documentary loses sight of the actual grief and hurt a devastated son would feel. Mar 22, 2021 Full Review Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue ... builds suspense like a thriller, but its broader examination of legal and judicial corruption raises the emotional stakes. Mar 20, 2021 Full Review Rob Aldam Backseat Mafia After the Murder of Albert Lima is a truly singular experience, stuck somewhere between laughter and tears. Mar 18, 2021 Full Review Jorge Rivera Rubio QiiBO More than once I had to hit pause to investigate if what I was seeing actually happened, but it ended up winning me over with its absurd and equally emotional and healing story.

Audience Member Jokeamentary. Bounty Hunters are running a scam on the kid. Incompetent losers when the woman shows she knows nothing about guns. (Luger is a .22) and shooting a round off in the car. The man is all ego and no skill. Who did the background research on those actors? Whole movie was a good waste of background noise. Scripts were poorly written; probably by the same fools writing the Storage Wars. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member A little boring, but still a nice and decent movie regardless. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
