Notes
Description
Dante encourages his fifteen-year-old daughter to date only Spanish-speaking Hispanics, but she ignores his advice and runs off with a non-Spanish speaking Latino with tatoos and a shaved head. The disappearance cannot be reported to the police because Dante is in the U.S. illegally. So he sets out for Las Vegas, where the boyfriend supposedly lives, a journey that ultimately sheds light on issues such as immigration, cultural assimilation, and the future of the Latin American presence in the United States.
