Carmen

Synopsis

Carmen (Melissa Barrera) is a young and fiercely independent woman who is forced to flee her home in the Mexican desert following the brutal murder of her mother, another strong and mysterious woman. Carmen survives a terrifying and dangerous illegal border crossing into the US, only to be confronted by a lawless volunteer border guard who cold-bloodedly murders two other immigrants in her group. When the border guard and his patrol partner, Aidan (Paul Mescal) —a Marine with PTSD—become embroiled in a deadly standoff, Carmen and Aidan are forced to escape together.
