Reviews
We learn the cruelty of a system of hope in which the longing for a better life is the bait to lure people to an untimely death.
With its compellingly multifaceted approach, its earnest compassion and a celebrity presence in the form of the actor Gael García Bernal, the documentary could be enlisted in the perennial battle over immigration law.
