Plot

Officer Blanca Bravo (Ana de la Reguera) arrives in Juarez, Mexico to investigate a sequence of killings targeting female migrant workers. But with no help from the locals, bringing the responsible parties to justice becomes a frustrating exercise. As Bravo rails against indifference and local corruption, she finds herself on a collision course with Mickey Santos (Jimmy Smits), a Mexican mogul with a taste for young prostitutes.^[3]
