400 Bags is a haunting exploration of a mother’s relentless search through the harsh landscape of Mexico's migration routes. Valadez crafts a somber tone, emphasizing the emotional weight of loss and desperation. Magdalena's journey is punctuated by striking visuals that capture both the beauty and brutality of the terrain she traverses. The pacing is deliberately slow, allowing viewers to sit with her grief and the stark realities faced by countless families. Performances feel raw and genuine, pulling you into the intimate struggle of a parent. It's not just about the physical journey; it delves deep into themes of hope, sorrow, and the lengths one will go for love. The film's atmosphere lingers long after the credits roll.
