Watch it. This is a culturally specific story about indigenous resilience that sounds genuinely compelling—Tosi's determination to help her grandmother against community apathy has real emotional stakes. Without scores to hide behind, you're looking at authentic storytelling from a perspective Hollywood rarely centers, and that's exactly the kind of film worth discovering.

Plot

Tosi (Naomi León), a native girl from an indigenous community in Baja California, motivated by her grandmother's (Inocencia Sáenz) delicate condition and annoyed by the apathy of her brother (Ratkley López) and the other members of the community, seeks to do the difference in a moment where darkness has consumed everything.
