00:00You're going to tell us your name, age, profiles, and full circle.
00:09Hi, my name is Elena and I'm 12 years old.
00:12And why did you decide to start doing casting?
00:14My mom takes pictures of me, my aunt writes to me.
00:17I imagine myself as a guy like Juliana Alvarez.
00:20My dream has always been to win an Oscar, to be in the United States.
00:24I'm completely made for this.
00:26And why do you want to work in this?
00:28To have money.
00:29And what do you do with the money you earn?
00:31We're running a ranch in Guadalajara.
00:34And since my dad doesn't have a job...
00:36I lend it to my parents so they can buy things.
00:39Right now I'm not going to school. I'm only dedicated to going to the theater to rehearse.
00:44After I leave school, I have to change in the car.
00:48I have to eat in the car.
00:49I have to study the notebook in the car.
00:51I have to do the homework in the car.
00:53I mean, my whole life is literally in the car.
01:00A lot of people say,
01:02Do you like to support your family?
01:04You also have to save your money.
01:06Oh, now I remember why I don't like having so many friends.
01:08Because moms are very bad.
01:10Yes, because a lot of moms are good, right?
01:12No, I'm not fulfilling my dream.
01:14I never liked this.
01:16No, I did like it.
01:17Carlos Mesa was three years old.
01:19And they asked me to record two scenes.
01:21And there they invite him to be a child.
01:24I couldn't study and be a teenager.
01:26Because, well, I had to work, I had to support myself.
01:29My mom is not here.
01:30She left seven months ago.
01:32My dad passed away in Phoenix, Arizona.
01:35I haven't met her in person.
01:37I mean, I've talked to her on the phone.
01:39I recognize her voice, but I've never seen her face to face.
