"Backrooms" Succeeds
We got a movie that takes the old school approach of trying to creep you out with chilling atmosphere more than anything else.
10 Kilos
Sharon Yitzhaki traveled to Bolivia with a guy she barely knew. She was indicted in an attempt to smuggle 10 kilos of cocaine out of the country and sentenced to serve her time at one of the cruelest women’s prisons in the world. She quickly became a media sensation in Bolivia, had an affair with the head of La Paz’s drug cartel, established a family in prison that included a 7-year-old orphan and an amazing transgender, ran the cartel business in prison to protect her family, became addicted to cocaine and quit to save the loved ones in her life, used a loophole in the law to smuggle herself and her family to Brazil, from there back to Tel Aviv and then wrote a detailed, bestselling autobiography.

What are we willing to walk through to see our dreams come to pass? Our minds might be so wholly alive with the passions we carry and the plans we make to see these things become all we wish them to be, yet life doesn’t always want to come alongside.
