I Carry You With Me

...a searing saga of the undocumented experience in which love is the binding force.

...the handheld cinematography lends an intimacy to the decades-long rapport between the two men.

...a complicated film, in many ways, and it covers a lot of ground, but the emotions portrayed are simple and human-sized.

...an enchanting mix of drama and romance, but also a timely, poetic love letter to Iván’s home country, Mexico.

What started as a documentary about two Mexican immigrants in love becomes a free-form look at what their relationship’s endured — and is better for it.
