Movie Haiku:Amazingly propulsive feature from Paraguay takes Hollywood crime tropes & spins them into home-grown gold. "Victor" (Franco) is a teenager who works as a delivery boy in the Asunción market. Thru a series of coincidences, he finds himself entrusted with 7 sealed boxes & the chase is on! By the next dawn, we have met a huge cast & grown to love a new place both foreign & familiar. Bravo!
