La jaula de oro

Director: Diego Quemada-Díez

Guatemala/Spain/Mexico, 2013, Drama, 108 mins, English subtitles


Very popular Spanish language drama concerning a group of Guatemalan teenagers who attempt to make their way to the USA, dreaming of a better life. However, they are ill equipped, both physically and emotionally, for the challenges they face in getting
there. This is an absorbing and suspenseful film, with excellent performances by its three non-professional leads.
