A teenage girl is held captive in the home of a wealthy family. She is befriended by the family's young gardener, himself an illegal from Mexico. Their friendship carries both of them through their hopeless, sequestered lives and ultimately inspires them to break free.
"Malcolm McDowell (unforgettable from 'A Clockwork Orange') plays an important supporting role in a small American independent film that tackles a delicate subject, about the relationship between a teen kept in captivity, in a condition analogous to slavery, and the gardener, who is an illegal Mexican immigrant. They escape, a situation that leads to a trial. Simple, with several problems caused by the low budget, but still engaging."
