From the producer of Selena and directed by award-winning actor Edward James Olmos comes the stirring true story of courage and justice. The year is 1968 the height of the national civil-rights movement. Paula Crisostomo (Alexa Vega Spy Kids) is an idealistic honor student who refuses to play it safe in a school system that discriminates against Mexican-Americans. Together with thousands of supporters she coordinates a multi-school walkout of students to protest academic prejudices. Mentored by her charismatic teacher Sal Castro (Michael Pena Million Dollar Baby) and with the help of her friend Bobby (Efran Ramirez Napoleon Dynamite) Paula learns that sometimes the price of progress is high - but it's ultimately worth paying.
