Film Inquiry

Marisol dared to tackle the subjects of racism and immigration and succeeded in every way, bringing out of the shadows something that a lot of people like to pretend doesn’t exist.

The result is powerful, if marred at times by the script’s more melodramatic turns.

Movie Nation

The one big thing working against how all this plays is how over-familiar the ground is, how even with the occasional twist or bit of misdirection from the script, we’ve kind of seen this and we pretty much know where it’s headed.

Rated: 2.5/4

Cinemalogue

An expressive portrayal by newcomer Esmeralda Camargo in the title role galvanizes this heartfelt immigration drama.

NYC Movie Guru

Overstuffed, undercooked and clunky, but elevated by Esmeralda Camargo's genuinely heartfelt performance.

A pointless movie. Low budget movie that feels low budget. story is all over the place and it is not a good representation of what illegal teenagers go through in the US.

Rated 1 out of 5 stars
