"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.
Carmen G is "A true Hispanic film, the movie could be located just about anywhere in Latin America , Is one of the most influential and incendiary World Cinemas !!! Must surely be Latin and Spanish Cinema. Carmem G share a sense of the grittiness of the so called Cinema, this truth movie with a beauty and melodrama which seems to be as much a part of their day to day life .They evoke images of passion, color, and a visual veracity all of their own . the film that most people associate with Latin cinema's it is a sometimes complex work with very emotions .Carmem G is perhaps the film's greatest achievement." Anf one the best,movies ever made..
As producer of the movie "Carmen G", creator of the story and lead actress, I think that "Carmen G" is the kind of work, that all actress will love to interpret. "Carmen G" is a humble women, full love, naive and much more. As a producer, I thank all sponsors and people who believed in this project. Every time I sit in a theater to see "Carmen G", I feel very proud. In Los Angeles was a complete success and as well as in New York, Boston, Chicago. I want to thank The Indie Fest California for the award for best leading actress 2012. I directed the third cut of the story. I thank all the actors and families involve in " Carmen G", right know, I'm working in my second film as a producer and I wish that "Salome" will capture your attention too. Thanks U.S.A - ColombiaSynopsis: Carmen is a Latin-American peasant who immigrated to the United States to give her baby a better life. But in her first night in NY goes something wrong with her child and from there the story of Carmen, focuses on the search for his son, forgetting her life and health.
The filmmakers showed the tragedy of a person who is in much pain. When someone loses a loved one, they often can't rest, and this was depicted well by displaying Carmen's hurt and confusion. When watching the film, you feel concerned for her well-being every step of the way. And, the entire cast was believable in their depictions.

" 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!
