| Summary: | At a Texas highway, a man cleans his footprints and leaves a truck with the bodies of undocumented Mexicans. At another point on the spectrum, the young lawyer Carlos, although he only wants to make money with his profession, joins some Chicanos who fight for the rights of the undocumented workers who work in the Morris factory, owned by Mr. Flint. In parallel, in the Mexican branch of the Morris, the workers organize themselves to defend their rights and carry out concerted actions between the workers of both factories. En el paraje de una carretera en Texas, un hombre limpia sus huellas y abandona una camioneta con cadáveres de indocumentados mexicanos. En otro punto del espectro, el joven abogado Carlos, a pesar de que sólo quiere hacer dinero con su profesión, se une a unos chicanos que luchan por los derechos de los obreros indocumentados que laboran en la fábrica Morris, propiedad de Mr. Flint. Paralelamente, en la filial mexicana de la Morris, los obreros se organizan para defender sus derechos y llevan a cabo acciones concertadas entre los obreros de ambas fábricas. |
