The story concerns two agents, one Mexican (PJF) and one American, who are tasked to stop the smuggling of Mexican migrant workers across the border to California. The two agents go undercover, one as a poor migrant.

VIBE

A stark, shadowy journey into the morally gray zones of the border. This film noir feels like a dusty, sun-baked procedural, where every decision carries the weight of desperation and the threat of unseen danger.
