"La Soga"

This movie was shot in my mom's hometown of Santiago, Dominican Republic. It's only been sreened in Toronto but i'm hoping through it's popularity there, it'll eventually come down here.

"Largely shot in real crime-infested neighborhoods and local slums, "La Soga" is as much a meditation on the embattled Dominican culture as it is a crime drama, with the soulful intensity of such films as "The Harder They Come" and "City of God.""- LA Times
