Episode 116 of One Week Only! Our key film this week is "En el Séptimo Día" (On The Seventh Day), a naturalistic and inspiring drama about a group of undocumented Mexican immigrants in NYC who must choose between working on Sunday or playing in a championship soccer game. Directed by Jim McKay, it's a rich character portrait and a heartfelt look at immigrant struggles and dreams. (20:50) We also review the heartwarming musical drama "Hearts Beat Loud" directed by Brett Haley (2:55), and the complex character drama "Nancy" directed by Christina Choe (12:10).
