After decades of waiting, she receives the missing clue to find the soldier, which leads her to conjure up an absurd revenge plan putting her heritage, her family and even her life at risk.

The Critic says:
“Solid thriller (…) Despite the seriousness of the subject and the good handling of the keys of the police thriller and, stylistically speaking, of the classic film noir, ‘No nos moverán’ also functions as a funny comedy of manners.” Ernesto Diezmartínez: Letras Libres

“An engrossing thriller with endearing touches of humor, courtesy of a slum sidekick, who, without ever falling for the easy joke or the flash per se, reminds us of the humanity behind what at first glance might seem absurd.” Jesús Chavarría: Diario La Razón de México
