Renowned Mexican actor Diego Luna, in his brilliant directorial debut, presents a delightful story about a peculiar boy who, as he blurs reality and fantasy, takes over the responsibilities of a family man in his father's absence. Believing himself to be the father of his siblings, and the husband of his mother, Abel brings an unexpected steadiness to his struggling family. Saturated with splendid cinematography and winningly amusing moments, Luna’s film manages to balance sadness and joy through the stunning performances of a superb cast, and the discerning and sensitive gaze of a promising author.
