Sealed Cargo

Streaming video - 2015

With a promotion in his future and his beautiful wife at his side, things couldn’t be better for ambitious policeman Hector Mariscal. Before he can enjoy the good life, a final, top-secret assignment must be carried out: to transport-by rail-a highly toxic cargo across Bolivia’s high desert backcountry and “dispose” of it in a remote indigenous village. With kind engineer Klinger guiding his beloved steam locomotive Federica, and presented with a crew of hapless cops and an unexpected young stowaway, Mariscal finds that there’s much more on the line than he imagined. Official Selection at the **Palm Springs International Film Festival** and the **Havana Film Festival**. *“A truly universal film that speaks not only to urgent mat...ters of environmental protection and the rights of indigenous peoples, but to the complexities of the human heart”* - Tom McSorley, ***The Canadian Film Institute
