Detenido por ICE al cruzar la frontera entre México y Estados Unidos, Santiago revive los sucesos que lo llevaron a este momento. Huyendo de una abuela abusiva con solo el dinero del boleto de autobús, se niega a regresar. Su destino cambia cuando conoce a María Dolores, una mujer cariñosa y maternal, y a su pequeña hija Alegría. Al decidir acompañarlas hacia el norte, Santiago debe aprender a confiar en otros tras toda una vida viajando solo. Con apenas mochilas de agua y comida, los tres descubren que cruzar México es solo el comienzo de una historia mucho más grande.

English Translation

Santiago's Road Home

Detained by ICE while crossing the U.S.-Mexico border, Santiago relives the events that brought him to this moment. Fleeing an abusive grandmother with only bus fare in his pocket, he refuses to turn back. His path changes when he meets María Dolores, a warm, maternal woman, and her young daughter Alegría. Deciding to join them on their journey north, Santiago must learn to trust others after a lifetime of going it alone. Traveling with little more than backpacks of water and food, the three soon discover that crossing Mexico is only the beginning of a much bigger story.
