Danny (Chavarria), a talented young street artist, is caught between the lowrider community inhabited by his old-school father (Bichir) and step-mother (Longoria) and following in the dangerous path of his ex-con brother (Rossi). Danny must decide between his quest for self-expression or following his family's tradition in this highly original and superbly-acted film.
