Summary:
The film follows Rosa and her husband Nestor, owners of a tiny convenience store who supplement their meager income by selling small amounts of 'ice' (crystal meth). Eventually the couple gets caught and hauled away by police, who are more interested in collecting bribes than eradicating crime. With their parents locked away, it's left to Rosa's children to scrounge together the money to pay off the police and free their parents, by any means necessary.
