WATCH THE OFFICIAL TRAILER
A determined Honduran mother and her three daughters are swept into the currents of the contentious migrant caravan as it pushes relentlessly toward safety, opportunity, and the United States.
Leaving behind all their possessions and fleeing the violence and poverty that grip much of Central America, Joanna follows the same path her estranged mother traveled years before. Like drops of water in a river, the family moves through Mexico with the caravan—an immense group of up to 7,000 migrants that has further polarized political debate in the U.S.
Los ríos invites us to reflect on modern migration, human rights, and our own role as consumers of media.
At the core, we witness firsthand that there is no limit to what a mother will do for the safety and future of her children.
