When 93-year-old América injures herself in a fall, her son and only caregiver is imprisoned for neglect. This beautiful documentary set in Mexico records how her three grandsons stepped in to care for her and the tender, moving relationships established over the next three years. A powerful account of intergenerational family ties and the possibility for love to win through in certain caring situations.
