Sergio grew up in the 'hood. He's mostly been down for his vatos all his life, and they want him to fully join them. But as he reaches manhood, Sergio's not so sure anymore. Because Sergio is also a genius, with many opportunities awaiting him in the outside world. But he must make a choice. Angel is a little older, a former cholo from the block, and he has become a Christian. Angel's cousin Rico is still deep in "The Game." There are choices and mysteries to uncover as these men, and their mothers, aunts and friends argue and laugh about what is most in important in life.
