other title: Batalla en el cielo | バトル・イン・ヘブン

In the film "Battle In Heaven" (2005), the paths of two vastly different worlds converge in a tale of tragedy, guilt, and redemption. Marcos, a working-class man, and his wife take a drastic step to secure ransom money by kidnapping a baby. However, their desperate plan takes a devastating turn as the innocent infant tragically loses its life. In an entirely separate realm, we encounter Ana, the daughter of a powerful general, whose life is marked by indulging in sexual acts with various men for her pleasure. Marcos, burdened by guilt and seeking solace, confesses his crime to Ana, who becomes entangled in his troubled search for relief. As the film unravels, we witness Marcos's spiritual journey, taking him to his knees among a congregation of believers moving slowly towards the Basilica, in honor of the Lady of Guadalupe. Amidst the backdrop of devotion and faith, "Battle In Heaven" delves deep into the complexities of human desires, choices, and the quest for redemption in the face of profound guilt.
