Spanish with English subtitles

A haunting horror fairytale set against the backdrop of Mexico’s devastating drug wars, this film follows a group of orphaned children armed with three magical wishes, running from the ghosts that haunt them and the cartel that murdered their parents. López creates a world imbued with her own gritty urban spin on magical realism to conjure a wholly unique experience that audiences will not soon forget.

Reviews

This is one terrific film, both tough and touching. Two minutes in, I was under its spell.
- Stephen King
Writer/director Issa López has crafted an emotionally beautiful fairytale, tangled in the horrific underworld of cartel violence in Mexico.
