This film is layered with elements of hope and heartache. It centers on the current events in Little Haiti. The multi-generational experience of this vibrant immigrant segment of Miami is featured. It is unique and yet familiar to anyone in any community facing challenges of gentrification, against struggles for a piece of their American dream.

A historic community of working class families is faced with rapid changes. The future is scary and confusing. Most especially for those who have been displaced from their homeland.

At first glance this film looks to fill a niche. In fact it seems to shine a light on more complex issues faced by all except the very rich or those living in a fantasy world.

It's a formulaic procedural sometimes with obvious awkward moments and solutions. The scenery is the best part. The plot seems to have been developed with AI. I watched every episode to end of the season. I find it very stilted. I guess the algorithm decided that Justin Hartley needed some medical skills for believability in tight spots. They hand him a small backpack that features every conceivable splint, wrap, salve and pain reliever known to man. All neatly arranged in a very small pack. His pack stores more than an EMT Truck. I think the time he pulled an aluminum splint out disappointed me most since he was in the woods with plenty of branches available. After the show Justin awkwardly read from a teleprompter that season two would be coming soon. Very dry and matter of fact.
