Alone in Los Angeles, Enrique doesn't speak a word of English. Forced to work as a day laborer to earn money for loved ones back home, his loyalties are put to the test when a simple job escalates into a matter of life and death. This Student-Academy-Award-winning short poignantly examines and explores the world of the haves and have-nots, of privilege and prejudice, and of preconceptions and boundaries.
