Frontera

Mateo attempts the dangerous journey from Mexico to the United States through the Sonoran Desert. After Border Patrol agents catch him near the fence, his escape leaves him alone without water or a guide as the heat approaches. His unexpected companion is Guillermo, a ghost who knows the borderlands and may offer Mateo his only chance to survive. Their journey combines immediate physical danger with the histories of people whose lives have been shaped or lost along the route.
