...And the Earth Did Not Swallow Him

Twelve-year-old Marcos hides under a house, recalling the fragmented, painful memories of his family’s transient life the year before. A series of moving and simultaneously disturbing episodes unfold into a poignant story of inner strength and human values vs. blind faith. After seeing innocent workers die in the fields, his family nearly killed by heat exhaustion, and the atrocities committed by the couple in whose care he is entrusted, Marcos has little faith left in the superstitions which rule his family’s life and is willing to make a deal with the devil to change his destiny.
