This film concerns Mexicans living in present day south Texas.

She loses interest in him, and begins to flirt with his younger and better looking brother--with fatal results.

And the prisoner continues, "I'll follow them even there, and If I'm born again, I'll kill them again!'" (e se eu voltar a nascer, eu os vulvo matar!
