great job at what it is trying to be

tacotiobeto

might not be for everyone but a well done work.

very much of the LatinAmerican "magical realism" school. if you enjoy tales by the likes of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Isabel Allende, Jorge Amado, etc. and get a kick out of Almodovar films then you will most likely enjoy this.

if those aren't the types of stories that put wind in your sails then I would steer clear of it.

also enjoyable for creating a wistful world on the Texas-Mexico border at the edge of the two cultures and distinctly its own.

happy viewing.

score 8/10
