Four heartfelt stories connected by a tragic event. 2 kids playing with a gun in Moracco set off a chain of events that affect the lives of themselves, a traveling American couple, their Mexican nanny in the South-Western US and a deaf girl in Japan.
I love how it touches on so many difficult social issues in just over 2 hours, the glimpse it gives you into different cultures and how stupid decisions can have disastrous results in a world where rules and politics are more important then people. Favorite quote: "Isn't Mexico a dangerous place." "Yes it is, it's full of Mexicans."
