Hermano was a selection of the Dallas International Film Festival back in 2011, and it?s ?just now getting a theatrical release in the United States. This affecting drama is the?story of two brothers, unrelated by blood but raised as siblings, looking to escape the limited opportunities of life in their Venezuelan barrio.
Julio is older, gregarious, and works for the local crime lord to help pay the family?s bills. Daniel is timid and strait-laced, with a single-minded focus on his goal of becoming a professional soccer player. More than that, Daniel wants Julio forever on the pitch by his side. Both are among the best youth players in the country and invited to try out for the Caracas club, but a wrenching tragedy threatens to derail their plans.
Obligations to their mother, to their team, and to their friends in the local gang confuse loyalties and cause conflict between the brothers. In the end ? as a soccer game is played that will determine the future for Julio and Daniel ? the film suggests that it?s those who are prepared to make any sacrifice to ensure our happiness who truly deserve to be called our ?family.?
