Calexico

by FILM INDEPENDENT INC

28 years old Chinese-American girl Ash, a rebellious artist wannabe, flees her family’s expectation of taking a stable job to Calexico, a border town in California. She has bonded with Lo, a Mexican transborder college senior who crosses regularly to school and helps to deliver flowers to her uncle’s shop in the US as both are stuck in limbo. After the on-and-off sweet days seeing each other, Ash and Lo have what could have been their last day to say goodbye before Lo’s border crossing visa expires. Both drifters in a land that is foreign to them, the two must confront societal pressures of family, identity, and immigration status and come to terms with their relationship on what could have been their last day together amidst the half-desert half-green land between US and Mexico.
