synopsis
In this surprisingly chaste and some would say bland movie, car clubs in East L.A. with their low-riding, decorated, custom vehicles provide the background for gang rivalry and a blossoming romance between Beto (Fernando Allende in his first English-speaking role) and the blonde newcomer to the neighborhood, Kim (Dawn Dunlap).
