El último vagón (2023)

Ernesto Contreras continues with interesting titles without stagnating in any specific genre or theme, and each film in his filmography is so different from one another that you will never know what his new proposal will be.

With a real vision of children's perception -more in line with that of our parents, as we are generation X-, and without anything to do with films like Pedrito Fernandez or Parchis from the 80s,

“The Last Wagon”, gives that approach to a childhood close to the provinces of yesteryear, devastated by the economic and social backwardness, but with a more severe and rigid education, that in the wandering before the rent of housing, the rough experiences are also tied with friendship, camaraderie and the disposition of some adults in the task of the formation of good people.

The film is a remembrance of the past that Ikal lived in the last town where he went to live with his parents, who went in search of job opportunities in the place that offered them, in this case the construction of a railroad.

In that place, there would be great possibilities of settling down for as long as possible and with the possibility of going to school. A dog, his three friends and a teacher will be the incentive to change his indisposition to school.
