It's not often you hear the words divorce, custody, and tennis in the same sentence, but in Sonny Baez's sharp and insightful family drama, he weaves them together seamlessly. Hailing from Mexico, the land of cinematic legends like Guillermo del Toro, Alfonso Cuarón, and Alejandro G. Iñárritu, Sonny faces the challenge of living up to their brilliance.
