Sans Signe Particulier

...Valadez’s expressionist images give texture to the abstract emotions of rage and pain.

...a cry of rage or a cry for help, on behalf of people in Mexico who have been abandoned to lawlessness, corruption and the vast market forces created by its northern neighbour.

...making searing poetry out of suffering so brutal to the soul that it can scarcely be put into words.

...a beautifully made heartbreaker that chronicles a mother's painful search for justice.

Valadez, with co-writer Astrid Rondero, have made a beautifully stark meditation on grief.

...peels back that feel-good façade of the “coming to America” narrative for a much more painful reality, one that feels freshly steeped in tears, heartache, and headlines.
