Amat Escalante

The Untamed Amat Escalante

Mexican drama co-written and directed by Amat Escalante. The film follows disillusioned pastry factory worker Ale (Ruth Ramos) who lives with her macho and outspoken husband Angel (Jesus Meza) and their two sons. Her openly gay brother Fabian (Eden Villavicencio) works as a nurse at the local hospital, and, unbeknownst to Ale, is also having a secret affair with Angel.

With an already complex family dynamic becoming increasingly difficult to handle, the sudden arrival of Veronica (Simone Bucio) complicates the situation yet further when she informs them that there is a mysterious force which lurks in an isolated cabin in the nearby woods which may be able to solve their problems and change their lives forever.
