The Compass Is Carried by the Dead Man

The Compass Is Carried by the Dead Man 2011 Directed by Arturo Pons La brújula la lleva el muerto

A Mexican boy bound for Chicago tries to cross the border, but is the crowded wagon he rides in going the right way? An offbeat, allegorical odyssey that blends absurd humor with pastoral imagery. A young man and a dead man journey north through a subtly surreal desert landscape, picking up a wagonful of odd characters as they go in this darkly humorous satire of contemporary Mexico.
