Winner of both prizes awarded in the Next category of the 2020 Sundance Film Festival, “I Carry You With Me” tells the true story of an undocumented gay couple from Mexico who risk their lives for …
began the project as a vérité portrait of her real-life subjects, Ivan and Gerardo, but cast actors to play the two men in reenactments of their early life — both as children and later, at the moment they met and fell in love.
When the film opens in Puebla City, Mexico, aspiring chef Ivan is stuck washing dishes and fixing toilets despite the fact he has a culinary school diploma. There’s no room for advancement at his current job, so to ease his sorrows, he sneaks out to a secret club with his best friend Sandra . There he meets openly gay Gerardo , who is a bit more experienced and excited to discover a fresh face in the crowd.
Ewing inserts glimpses of Ivan and Gerardo’s childhoods in the mix, as both men knew they were gay but were raised by very different fathers. In Mexico, there is a stigma surrounding homosexuality, and it isn’t openly accepted in most families, so these scenes allow audiences to see where these men come from and what they had to deal with growing up. In terms of placement, however, these scenes are incorporated at strange moments, slowing the momentum of important story beats.
