This movie will follow Pablo, a hard worker who previously lived and worked on a Franciscan mission, as he adjusts to life on a Mexican rancho tending to cattle. Later in the movie, Pablo will leave his post as a rancho worker to move to urban LA to create a life with Eva when the LA river floods the land that he works on. Eva, a mexican immigrant, works as a maid in a very wealthy house in LA and experiences firsthand the racial divide that was created by the mission system and the lack of opportunity for women in the workplace. Additionally, Eva and Pablo will live by the river because it is the cheapest housing. Pablo will later seek work at the Simons Brick Factory, where he and Eva will be given a monetary incentive to have children. This chapter of the movie sequence ends on a cliff hanger; labor disputes and racial tensions seem to be overtaking Los Angeles.
