Hermanita is quite the gritty piece, capturing the raw urgency of a young woman's desperate journey through the Costa Rican wilderness. The atmosphere is thick with tension, and you really feel the stakes as she hunts down her sister from those vile traffickers. The pacing is brisk, keeping you on the edge without feeling rushed. Practical effects are commendable, adding a layer of realism that heightens the drama. Performances are pretty solid—particularly from the lead, who brings a fierce determination to the role.
