Lila (Patricia Pereyra) is a teenaged heroin addict who is on the run from some rough customers. It doesn't matter to her that these unpleasant characters were hired by her parents to drag her back to her home. She stumbles into an auto junkyard and is befriended by the manager, Juan (Pedro Armendariz, Jr.), an older man with a daughter about her age who has run away from him and is living in one of the U.S./Mexico border towns. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi
