Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Ilopango Caldera, the lake featured, was formed by a volcanic eruption that destroyed Mayan cities in the 6th century — the kids literally sail on buried history.
Director Pilar Colomé spent three years embedded with the family; the final scene was unscripted — Arturo really did capsize that day.
