Summary

Rudy is an American of Hispanic descent whose south-of-the-border looks show him no mercy during an immigration raid in a migrant worker factory. As his luck goes, he is caught with neither money nor his ID and is deported to Mexico--without speaking a word of Spanish! Unable to contact his vacationing family or his newly immigrated cousin, Rudy is in for a crazy ride as he tries every legal--and illegal--scheme he can think of to get back home to the States. He finds himself in jail, in love, and practically in-sane! Trouble follows him everywhere as he runs from la migra in this case of mistaken--or rather misplaced--identity.
