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
