Though multi-layered, at the heart of the film is Latin machismo. Enrique Rodriguez (Esai Morales) returns home after two years in the big house to a changed family. The biggest change is in his son, Michael (Harmony Santana), who has morphed into Vanessa.
Believing that Michael's behavior casts him in a bad light, the volatile Enrique is enraged and sets out to make a real Nuyorican man out of his son the only way he knows how. (See trailer at: http://www.gunhillroad.com/trailer)
