Summary: From case cover: From the producers of Selena and directed by award-winning actor Edward James Olmos comes a stirring true story of courage and justice. The year is 1968, the height of the national civil-rights movement. Paula Crisostomo (Alexa Vega, Spy Kids) is an idealistic honor student who refuses to "play it safe" in a school system that discriminates against Mexican-Americans. Together with thousands of supporters, she coordinates a multi-school walkout of student to protest academic prejudices. Mentored by her charismatic teacher Sal Castro (Michael Peña, Million Dollar Baby), and with the help of her friend Bobby (Efren Ramirez, Napoleon Dynamite), Paula learns that sometimes the price of progress is high - but it's ultimately worth paying.
