Mystical l Humorous l Poignant By Eric Reyes Loo Directed by Evren
Odcikin Heartbroken from a breakup, Eric does what many do – deny
the pain and skip town. But he finds it’s hard to enjoy a pozole in
peace when the spirits of your ancestors are squabbling in both ears.
Through raucous conversation with his ghostly guides and a surreally
hot hookup, Eric’s impulsive trip to Mexico City awakens his need
for identity, familial ties, and a deeper connection to his roots.
