Al Otro Lado (2004) Guide
Fans of Innocent Voices (2004), Which Way Home (2009), or Sin nombre (2009). Would you like a comparison of Al otro lado with other Latin American migration films, or a scene-by-scene analysis of any of the three stories?
The three stories are intercut throughout the film and converge thematically in the final act, though the characters never meet. The connection is the universal longing for family and the sacrifices imposed by migration. | Character | Actor | Nationality | |-----------|-------|--------------| | Jorge | Jorge Milo | Mexican | | Said | Mohamed El Bouazati | Moroccan | | Yusleydis | Yordanka Ariosa | Cuban | | Adult Narrator (voice) | Gael García Bernal | Mexican | al otro lado (2004)
