Mario 1

Carmen Garcia witnesses and avenges the murder of her sister by crime boss Francisco Sanchez. To complicate matters, Sanchez is Carmen's brother-in-law, and has been abusing Carmen for years. Carmen steals her newborn nephew, and flees from Nogales to Tucson to Spanish Harlem to Los Angeles, struggling to make a life for herself and Mario. And maybe she'd have gotten away scot-free-if she hadn't taken a million dollars with her, too.
