Описание: They've spent most of their lives in the United States and know little if nothing about their real homeland, so when six Mexican nationals and one El Salvadorian without legal documents, are deported back to Mexico, they experience a roller coaster ride of ups and downs. Forced to be deported through Tijuana via San Diego from Arizona the undocumented migrants tell their tales of love and sorrow inside a border patrol van. They are escorted by an overzealous Hispanic border agent who makes it his personal duty to torment each and everyone in the hot and smelly van; they learn more about themselves that they would have ever imagined. Guided by the benevolent voice of reason, in the form an ex-preacher and co-deportee, they realize that their life is not over, but has taken a different turn; some for the better some for the worse. They arrive as new people into Tijuana with a tale as intriguing as any put up on the silver screen. From a picturesque horse ranch overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, to an East Los Angeles barrio home to an assassin, and an immigrant love story of betrayal in Illinois, a border town revival, and a young musicians trek from Central America, which includes a dangerous ride atop the train of death; their stories will captivate you. Nelly an honor student/Prom Queen, Psyko an East LA thug, Yeyo an aspiring guitarist, the housekeeper Do a Rosa, Mr. Green Thumb AKA Pretty Boy, Luis a sensitive trainer of horses, and an enigmatic ex-preacher Reymundo didn't start their journey on the right foot, but in the end they form a bond that only they will ever be able to explain. If seven times they fell from grace, seven times they were forgiven.
