Prayers for the Stolen
Tatiana Huezo / MX, DE, BR, 2021 / 110 min.
Ana, Maia and Paula have to beware of drugs gangs who kidnap young girls. Tatiana Huezo's feature debut paints an impressive portrait of Mexico as a narco-state. Screens alongside the première of El eco, Huezo’s documentary about a village surrounded by Mexican nature.
These girls live in a remote mountain village, dominated by drugs cartels. Most of the men have left to find work elsewhere, leaving their women behind with no money. The women therefore have to labour in the poppy fields, and try to keep their daughters out of the clutches of gangs who kidnap girls for the sex industry.
