Wetbacks background

Wetbacks

A struggling fishing charter boat captain makes a grave mistake by associating with a criminal organization that smuggles undocumented immigrants into California.

Ex- Coast Guardsman Jim Benson takes a gamble on a fishing charter to avoid losing his boat, only to find himself stranded in a small Mexican port with a loudmouthed drunk, Shanks, and his companion, Sally. The trio forms an unlikely bond and finds shelter with a local innkeeper, Alfonso. However, their haven is a front for a smuggling gang, led by Bodine and Ortega, who force Jim to run illegal shipments across the border. Sally tries to convince Jim to reveal the truth to the authorities, but he's too afraid, leading Sally to reveal a secret that changes everything.
