Synopsis
Xico's Journey (El camino de Xico, 2020) is a Mexican animated feature you can watch online on iFILM. Director Eric Cabello turns local folklore and mountain legends into a bright adventure for kids and parents alike.
Copi lives in a small town tucked against a mountain that has sheltered its people for generations. When a mining corporation moves in to tear that mountain down, she climbs into the highlands to stop them. Her companion is Xico, a hairless Xoloitzcuintle dog who turns out to be far more than a pet — old magic sleeps in him, and the town's survival rests on whether he finds the courage to wake it.
The voice cast pulls in Mexican stars and cultural figures, from Verónica Castro to writer Elena Poniatowska. It's a gentle story about standing up for the land you love, easy to put on for a family night. Stream Xico's Journey (2020) online on iFILM.
