In theaters November 8, 2013. Two time Academy Award nominee John Sayles ("Lone Star") returns to the border in this new thriller starring Edward James Olmos. Bernice and Fontayne grew up so close people said they could "go for sisters", but took very different paths in life. Twenty years later, those paths cross: Fontayne is fresh out of jail, and Bernice is her new parole officer. But when Bernice's son Rodney goes missing on the Mexican border, his shady partners in hiding or brutally murdered, she needs someone who can navigate Rodney's world without involving the police... and turns to her old friend. The pair enlist the services of a disgraced LAPD detective, and plunge into the underbelly of Tijuana, quickly finding themselves in a potentially deadly cat-and-mouse game with a ruthless gang of human traffickers.
