CADEJO BLANCO follows the story of Sarita, a young woman on a desperate search for her sister who disappeared during a night out in Guatemala City. Sarita risks her life to learn the truth by infiltrating the country’s underground gang networks. It is a story of revenge and personal resilience that considers the complexity of life in contemporary Guatemala under the perpetual threat of violence. Screen Daily calls it “a nail-biting, evocative and utterly persuasive crime drama that is very much a part of the country’s burgeoning film output.”

Not so much an out-and-out suspense thriller as a character study powered by an outstanding lead performance by Karen Martínez. – Guardian

Lerner’s slowburn saga deconstructs and admonishes a system where boredom begets anger and anger begets violence, and the hardnut lieutenants in these organisations go about their grisly business simply because, once you’re in, you’re in for life. – Little White Lies
