Perdidos en la noche

Emiliano lives in a small mining town in Mexico. Motivated by a deep sense of justice, he searches for the perpetrators of the disappearance of his activist mother, who was standing up for local jobs against an international mining company. Receiving no help from the police or judicial system, he finds a clue that leads him to the wealthy Aldama family, where he meets a famous artist, his celebrity wife, and their beautiful daughter.

The Untamed

Alejandra is a working housewife, raising two boys with husband Angel in a small city. Her brother Fabian works as a nurse in a local hospital. Their provincial lives are upset with the arrival of mysterious Veronica. Sex and love can be fragile in certain regions where strong family values, hypocrisy, homophobia, and male chauvinism exist. Veronica convinces them that in the nearby woods, inside an isolated cabin, dwells something not of this world that could be the answer to all of their problems.
