I saw this film in the Independent Film Festival in NY and i must say that it was the best film i saw that week. The story was an amazing one that millions of people in America and all over the world can feel related to. This documentary was very real and impacting. To see how the life of a young girl evolves in the foreign country her parents took her at a young age, was exciting. This film can serve as an example of what so many people in this world must go through in order to achieve their goals. The difference in culture and to see how young people can actually become Americanized but at the same time not let go of their native culture was certainly something interesting to see. I loved how this film really takes you into the lives of these young people and best of all shows you the naked truth of a third world country and it's struggles.

Spanish-language cinema across Spain and Latin America is united by its engagement with history, cultural identity, and social transformation. In Spain, films often balance artistic experimentation with popular genres while reflecting on memory, politics, and family. In Latin America, cinema has been deeply tied to questions of colonial legacy, resistance, and community resilience, ranging from intimate dramas to bold political allegories.
