Movie description
This debut feature film by Joshua Marston tells the suspenseful and absorbing story of Maria, a poor, pregnant Columbian teenager (Catalina Sandina Moreno) with a soul-crushing job at a flower plantation and a rebellious streak. Her multigenerational, all-female family relies too much on her as the principle breadwinner, squandering her earnings on medicines of questionable value for her sister's baby. This drives Maria to quit, dump her immature boyfriend, and go to Bogotá where she tumbles into work as a drug mule. Like thousands of real-life Columbians, she earns money by flying to New York City with up to a kilogram of tightly wrapped heroin pellets in her stomach, risking prison or worse: instant death should even one of the pellets break open inside her. Marston based the film on actual interviews with airport customs agents and former mules; the result is an authentic, intensely cinematic experience. The camera wrings vivid color and mood from the many on-location settings and doesn't shy away from any aspect of Maria's journey, making this succeed as a suspense film, character study, and detailed examination of a rarely seen aspect of the drug wars. Thanks to the superb performance and charisma of lead actress Moreno--in her film debut--the audience stays riveted to her plight every step of the way. MARIA FULL OF GRACE made its debut at Sundance where it won the Audience Drama Award.

Editorial reviews
"[E]xtraordinary....[The film] unfolds with a simplicity that's as breathtaking as its inevitability is harrowing."
Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum (07/23/2004)

"Remember the name Catalina Sandino Moreno. The heartfelt and harrowing performance she gives here should put her in line for a heap of year-end awards."
Rolling Stone - Peter Travers (08/05/2004)

"The movie is every bit as gripping and suspenseful as many far more expensive Hollywood thrillers."
Movieline - Stephen Farber (07/01/2004)

"Sandino Moreno may be in only her early 20s, but she is able to draw upon her considerable talent and training to create a portrayal that comes from deep within. She has a radiant screen presence..."
Los Angeles Times - Kevin Thomas (07/15/2004)

"A human drama of great power..."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (12/03/2004)

"[A] well-crafted, finely acted tale....Moreno's exceptional performance maintains the mix of belligerence and naivete that makes Maria such a contradictory and compelling protagonist."
Sight and Sound - Geoffrey Macnab (03/01/2005)

"[Moreno] bolts the movie down with an earthy, spontaneous performance."
Uncut - Leslie Felperin (04/01/2005)

Ranked #24 in Uncut's Best Films Of 2005 -- "[I]ts multi-stranded, all-encompassing narrative evokes memories of Steven Soderbergh's TRAFFIC."
Uncut - Uncut Staff (01/01/2006)
