- RegistaEva Aridjis FuentesStelleJesus Padilla AlonsoGael García BernalJesse Ortiz PiñaIn Mexico there is a cult that is rapidly growing- the cult of Saint Death. This female grim reaper, considered a saint by followers but Satanic by the Catholic Church, is worshiped by people whose lives are filled with danger and/or who don't feel accepted by the church- criminals and gang members, sick people, drug addicts, gays and transsexuals and families living in rough neighborhoods. Narrated by Gael García Bernal, "La Santa Muerte" examines the origins of the cult and takes us on a tour of the altars, jails, and neighborhoods in Mexico where the saint's most devoted followers can be found.Fascinating documentary about the cult of Santa Muerte, the saint which is rapidly gaining popularity, not just among participants in criminal activity but among many segments of the population.

- RegistaRebecca Cammisa"Which Way Home" is a feature documentary film that follows unaccompanied child migrants, on their journey through Mexico, as they try to reach the United States. We follow children like Olga and Freddy, nine-year old Hondurans, who are desperately trying to reach their parents in the US.; children like Jose, a ten-year old El Salvadoran, who has been abandoned by smugglers and ends up alone in a Mexican detention center; and Kevin, a canny, streetwise fourteen-year old Honduran, whose mother hopes that he will reach the U.S. and send money back to her. These are stories of hope and courage, disappointment and sorrow. They are the children you never hear about; the invisible ones.Very powerful documentary following unaccompanied children from Central America who ride "the beast" (a train) from the Guatemala/Mexico border across Mexico to the United States. Among the many hazards they face are cartels who kidnap, ransom, and often kill Central American migrants.
