🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film’s power lies in its unflinching, direct gaze, offering no commentary beyond the children’s own words and experiences. It is a visceral, heart-wrenching portrait of resilience and risk.
What lingers after the credits is the profound weight of their journey—a stark, intimate look at a crisis often reduced to headlines. The children’s courage and vulnerability redefine the abstract term 'illegal migration.' — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Rebecca Cammisa

Dust of the rails, the clatter of freight cars, hushed conversations in boxcar darkness.
