SYNOPSIS
Two friends that work on a ranch herding sheep are fed up with the mistreat given to them by their boss. They come up with a plan to steal the sheep and sell them at the Mexican-American border, in order to fulfill their dream of a better future. What could possibly go wrong? That is the only question on Jose’s and Kumbia’s mind. Jerónimo, the boss’s son, will do anything in his power to catch them and not let them get away with anything that will someday be rightfully his. When the plan seems like it could actually work, Maria, a young girl learning her ways with men, appears to shake things up even more between Jerónimo and José.
