It’s the lunch rush at The Grill in Manhattan, and money has gone missing from the
till. All the undocumented cooks are being investigated, and Pedro (Briones) is the
prime suspect. He’s a dreamer and a troublemaker, and in love with Julia (Mara), an
American waitress who cannot commit to a relationship. Rashid, The Grill´s owner,
has promised to help Pedro with his papers so he can “become legal”. But a shocking
revelation about Julia compels Pedro to spiral into an act that will stop the production
