Nepantla: El entremedio
2024 | Color | 83:23

Following the death of her brother, filmmaker Robie Flores returns to her hometown on the Texas-Mexico border, wishing to turn back time. Immersed in the unruly experiences of adolescence, she rediscovers the intricacies of the home her brother adored and she once overlooked. What emerges is a playful dance between a personal and collective coming-of-age portrait of borderland youth and Robie herself as she reclaims joy in the aftermath of grief.
