Aroview: An accomplished delve into the experience of a 'drug mule', a teenage Colombian girl who enlists to smuggle heroin into the United States, so as to escape her plight of poverty and an unplanned pregnancy.

By avoiding the trend to exploit some of the uglier consequences and maintaining the perspective of its vulnerable young female, this honest and poignant tale will connect with a wider audience, particularly with women. Beautiful newcomer Moreno, too, is effortlessly full of grace, and surely an international star to watch.
