I CARRY YOU WITH ME premiered at the Sundance Film Festival where it won both the NEXT Innovator and Audience Awards and details the immigrant story of two Mexican migrants who, facing adversity, decide to chase their 'American dream' in search of a better life free of prejudices. The film documents this couple’s lives up to present day, exposing what gets left behind in the pursuit of something better, and the isolation and nostalgia for home that leaves these immigrants feeling lost between Mexico and the United States. I CARRY YOU WITH ME is documentary filmmaker, Heidi Ewing’s (Jesus Camp) fictional debut. Drawing from a true story, Ewing magnificently employs a hybrid storytelling style by fusing documentary filmmaking and narrative storytelling to immerse and captivate the audience in this tale of adversity and heart.
Based on a true story, this decades spanning romance between an aspiring chef (Armando Espitia) and a teacher (Christian Vázquez) follows their treacherous journey from Mexico to New York with dreams, hopes, and memories in tow.
