The movie
Having co-written Gravity with his father, Jonas Cuarón now trades outer space for the desert with a directorial debut that bears similarities to the award-winning feature. He tackles the issue of immigration through the lens of the survival, turning his film into an intense manhunt worthy of the classics. The talented Gael García Bernal shines as a Mexican running from an American hunter. This is brutal, essential cinema.
