This beautifully shot documentary about an indigenous Mexican woman trying to wring justice from a corrupt court system has all the right ingredients, but doesn't add up to a successful film. Perhaps its the endless teary-eyed hand wringing on the part of the film's protagonist, but this is a wearisome exercise indeed. Worthy of a look by documentary fans, but hardly in the first rank.
