Every day thousands of people leave their impoverished Central American homelands to get into the USA. Crossing the Northern border of Guatemala to Mexico they embark like outlaws on one of the most dangerous migration routes in the world. Carrying a small digital camera, the director travelled into this border region in the far South of Mexico, where for many migrants the American Dream becomes a Mexican nightmare right at the outset of their journey. There, where end and beginning, hope and doom, are close together. This moving "road-movie" narrates - among other things - the recurring chance meetings with Noé, a migrant from El Salvador. His agony tragically depicts end and beginning, hope and doom of of a whole mankind on the move.
