　　I would recommend keeping some tissues handy for this one. The documentary Ofrenda follows endurance athlete Sara Aranda as she attempts to set the first female record for one of the most brutal stretches of terrain in the United States. 　　But its Arandas emotional battle — and the heart-wrenching poetry that accompanies it — that makes this short film so compelling. 　　To...
