“Pereda’s Summer of Goliath combines documentary and fiction as it intertwines the stories of people living in a small town in rural Mexico. Those people include: a woman who believes her husband has left her for another woman; her soldier son, who hopes that one day he and his soldier partner will be issued machine guns so that they may intimidate the people passing motorists; and three brothers whose father left them many years ago in the care of their mother, who can barely support them.” —New Directors / New Films
