HERE AND THERE

Pedro returns home to a small mountain village in Guerrero, Mexico after years of working in the US to find that much has changed.

Winner of the Critics Week Grand Prize in Cannes, Antonio Mendez Esparza’s tale of an impoverished Mexican family is inflected with a Kiarostami-esque eye for landscape. Beautifully capturing the burnished colors of its rural setting, Here and There is an empathetic portrait of life on the margins.
