Edgar de Santiago gives a charismatic, richly human performance as Raymond, whose efforts to adapt to life in Mexico at first are stumbling and jarringly uncomfortable as he attempts to adjust to life with his authoritarian father who harbors some ill will for both having lost his son and being forced to now act like the father he's never been. De Santiago captures the rather horrid awkwardness of existing in a place many Americans would assume would feel like home yet most certainly doesn't. Finding work at an American call center for Foodavor, Raymond at least begins to find human connection, from a friend named Hector (Axel Alcantara) to potential love interest Monica (Fatima Favela).
