"El Norte" is a touching drama about two Guatemalan teenagers - a brother and a sister - who leave their native land following the murder of their father and the disappearance of their mother. Enrique and Rosa are determined to start a new life in "The North", and set out on foot for California, after hearing grand tales of toilets that flush and having gazed with wonder at borrowed copies of "Good Housekeeping" magazine. -- Back of container.
