A Latina teenager comes of age in the often violent and emotionally abusive surroundings of the inner city in Los Angles. Leaving the unbearable struggle of living in El Salvador, Alicia heads for Los Angeles with her little brother in tow to live with her drug abusive aunt in the ghetto. She finds a job in an illegal sweatshop and loses the job when immigrant authorities raid the spot. When she returns home to her aunt without money, she is beaten. When her visible scars are noticed by welfare representatives at her school, she is placed in a foster home and separated from her brother. Following her bad seed foster sister, she led into the hands of a sex offender and is raped. Alicia`s story continues downward, but on the way she learns strength is her only ally in a troubled bid to survive.
