Cine Colmena

A boy and a girl who have just met transport a corpse on request to the north of Mexico. When the police discover them at a routine check, they are forced to flee. Forced to team up, they will abandon their secrecy and mistrust while trying to assert his only heritage: a dead man who they only know is worth money if they manage to take him to his destination.

A recently married foreign woman adjusts to her new life in Mexico. When she meets Max, the teenage son of the woman who irons her husband’s clothes, desire overtakes her. Both must confront their attraction in a personal quest that transcends social class.

Carla and Andrés travel to Mexico City by bus and they stay in a hotel. It seems that they come to a concert. or at least that’s what they tell to their family and friends. What happens during that weekend can separate them forever, or unite them even more.

The isolation of Adela and Marcelino is common among many inmates processed without an interpreter in their native language before the Mexican justice system. Through their subjective experience, the dreams and memories they preserve of their lands in prison, they express in two voices the disorientation and the need to resist against exclusion by telling their story.
