- Young twins, Imelda and Luis, live a neglected life with their drug dealing mom and jerk-off drug addict older brother. They only have each other to fulfill their desires: she wants to be a nun and he wants to be a girl, neither of which seems possible. This is truly one of the more unusual tales about chasing your dreams to come along in quite a while. It's kind of an adult kid's film, a dark yet sometimes humorous depiction of these innocent children trying to escape a screwed up life in a twisted world. Growing up in this dysfunctional home life the twins have developed completely opposite morals and beliefs. Nicely paced with some lovely artful bits, the performances by the two young leads make the film. Their depiction of these independent children and their inventive plans takes us on a delightful and surprising journey.
- Elderly Amparo prepares a ritual meal and an altar to honour her late champion-wrestler husband at a special dinner in her house filled with memories. Told through sublime visuals this is a touching, melancholic story about love taken away, though never forgotten. We feel how devastating her loss has been. Hers is a life of remembrances and devotion, where the shrine and food could be interpreted as expressions of desire to join her husband in the afterlife.
