ANDRE

A typical high school student, André (17) does moderately well in classes but occasionally skips out to smoke a joint with friends. He helps his single father, Ernesto around the house and is an idol to his younger brother, José. A first generation American, André easily crosses the border to see friends and family in Mexico. The only thing that separates him from having a completely normal adolescence is that his father is illegal. When a young immigrations officer, Joel, detains Ernesto for a petty crime he committed decades earlier, André is left as the man of the household. A chance encounter with Joel is a chance for André to help his father.
