The story behind the movie is almost as interesting as the film itself. It involves the star of the film and how he got into the picture. Apparently he was a soap opera and rock star in Mexico and came to the U.S. to get into American films.
This is not your typical movie fare. It has some real human interest in it and it is very honest about its characters. I don't want to give away the story line, but it is about a social problem that many people face and it is resolved without preaching and in a surprising way. It also had some great scenes with the family which is Hispanic and we get to see...
