  This pitch-perfect road-trip film documents the odyssey of Armando and Carlos Peña as they gather together their five brothers to carry their mother’s ashes to her final resting place in McAllen, Texas. The filmmaker, who is married to Armando, tenderly tells his family’s remarkable migrant story and in the process captures what it means to live with and love one’s ghosts. RH
