    This powerfully rough slice of neo-realism, hitched to soapy melodrama, puts a heartbreakingly human face on the widespread problem of sexual assault in Mexico.
  2. Very strong stuff, and Sistach has inspired such young actors as Ayala and Gutiérrez to give sustained and harrowing portrayals.
  3. Reviewed by: David Parkinson

    This tale of Mexican poverty refuses to lapse into sensation or melodrama.
