A coming-of-age comedy about a Mexican-American teenager balancing college aspirations, societal expectations, and a hectic home life anchored by his single mom and five uncles.

Flora is a circus elephant who can no longer perform her tricks. The night before she’s scheduled to be euthanized, the circus owner’s 14-year old daughter, Dawn, sneaks Flora from the circus. All that stands between them and the safety of the elephant preserve is two hundred kilometers of woods, one raging river, two elephant hunters and the fear of not making it.
