Watchlist:
Chano is deported back to Mexico after living most of his life as an ilegal immigrant in the USA. Now, away from his wife and kids, he lives alone and depressed in the country where he is supposed to belong. While rebuilding an old motorcycle with Don Memo, a retired motorcycle racer, with whom he is forced to work, he will discover where his real home is.
Why you might like this:
Fans of thoughtful character studies and nuanced explorations of identity and belonging will appreciate the poignant, low-key drama of Number Eighty. Directed by Juan Manuel Zuñiga, the film's quiet, reflective tone and standout performance from Fernando Rojas as the deported immigrant Chano make it a compelling and empathetic portrait of displacement and the search for home.
