Hector Rodriguez pastors a small church in Tijuana and sometimes ventures into the darkest, most remote areas of Mexico where superstition and resentment of outsiders runs rampant. When his mother accompanies him on one of his trips, she opts to stay and use the Bible as a primer to teach reading to those who are willing to learn. Her presence is quickly resented, and her life is on the line—so much so that Hector must now ask himself if he is willing to continue his unwelcome missionary work, despite the price that might be required of him and his family.
