Ewing’s execution isn’t always up to her ambition. There are clumsy touches, stray clichés, moments when the drama’s dreamy, magic-hour lyricism borders on preciousness.

The turning point in the central, '90s-set storyline comes when Ivan’s wife realizes he has a boyfriend and threatens to cut him off from their child. Desperate but determined, Ivan decides to “cross over”: His plan is to get a job cooking in a New York restaurant, put aside money for his son and return to Mexico after a year to kick-start his career. Ivan, of course, has fallen hard for Gerardo, and asks him to come along.
