Brief synopsis

Zwei Botenjungen ohne Aufenthaltserlaubnis in New York umwerben eine mysteriöse Kroatin, während ihre Mutter von einem Schweizer Schundroman-Autor überredet wird, von ihrer Küche in der Bronx aus ein Burrito-Imperium zu starten. Der amerikanische Traum wird zur Falle, als ihnen die Deportation droht.
