" Carmen G" This is an Independent Film industry work , with a lot of work in sound, color, acting, script and music. The sound is very good and is very appropriate for a theater. The Color in the movie is fantastic. Acting is one of the more important things in any film and in " Carmen G" is very good, for me the work of the leading actress" Pierangeli Llinas" is excellent. The script is very nice with some fiction parts and other very real ( Breast Cancer, Immigration, discrimination and much more) . Finally the music is original very colorful and amazing for an independent film. Amazing piece of art. I recommend this film to anyone who is interested in seeing a high quality independent film, full of emotions and sensations. This is a film that will enrich your life.

I had the opportunity to see this film in XXIX Festival De cine De Bogota, Carmen G demonstrates the excellent quality of Colombian cinema is being done right now. Carmen G, is a Colombian peasant who flees violence to attack us for so many years here in Colombia, she travels to New York with her baby, with many dreams and illusions. On his first night in New York these dreams and illusions, completely change your life, this is where there is an intense story of a Colombian woman in the United States, which has drama, suspense and some fiction. ********* I recommend this Colombian movie is excellent! It has nothing to do with common Colombian films, contrary has very good photography, music, acting, directing, scripts etc ... I hope to present in Colombia again because it bears repeating.
" Carmen G" I do believe that many people has a history like that. Means something that is carried out all the life and it makes a crazy fact. The creativity of the screenplay and the effects added for that interesting cast around the protagonist, with people from several countries from different countries and cultures, makes a multi cultural encounter around the creativity. The sound and the music is appropriate and also shows a multicultural performance making it very rich. The Color and the photography in the movie looks nice.
I went to a theater looking for entertaining and I found "Carmen G" a little sad but all the time under the drama, with reflections around social behavior which made it interesting, so I do recommend you to fallow where is going to be next "Carmen G" in theaters, this time was in Los Angeles at Norwalk where I enjoy this one.
Good for the Independent Filmmakers!

Carmen G is a very good movie. This movie has drama, fiction and a great social message, (Breast Cancer, Immigration). I think that is a very good movie. I think a is reality, with a bit of fiction. It has a excellent cast and very talented protagonist, made me laugh and cry several times. I see his transformation gradually. The movie has very good shots of New York and photography. It has a very clear message, about immigration and the difficulties that illegal immigrants suffer. I believe that is an eye opener for many who do not know the suffering of illegals immigrants in U.S.A.
I recommend it to everyone.

"Carmen G" is an excellent film, I recommend this film to anyone who is interested in watching high quality independent film. Excellent Color and Music. " Carmen G" shows well-marked the social walks.Captures the audience with each event and maintains an atmosphere of expectation until the end, which surprises even the most experienced critic. We received a lot of constructive criticism and sympathy with the theme of the movie. "Carmen G is not only an immigrant, she is a reality, that seems fiction."You can not miss the opportunity to see "Carmen G" a story that you will love. This film will touch the deepest feelings of compassion in your hearts.
