The story

Set along the All-American Canal, Mexican farm workers, known as "braceros," camp near the California–Mexico border to receive their work permits so they can enter legally into the United States, while others cross the border illegally. These illegal migrant workers are usually robbed and beaten by bandits as they cross the desert. To combat this problem, two agents, Pablo Rodriguez, a Mexican PJF, and Jack Bearnes, an American Border Patrol agent, are assigned by their respective countries to investigate the gang of bandits.
