Maria (Catalina Moreno) is a poor teenager, living in Columbia, and working in a sweatshop cutting roses to be shipped to America. When she discovers she’s pregnant, she begins to think about the kind of life she has to offer her baby. Knowing her boyfriend is a dead beat and will not support her; Maria begins to seek other ways to make money. She is persuaded to become a mule, smuggling cocaine into the USA for a good deal of money. Maria swallows little tubes of cocaine until her stomach becomes too full to hold anymore. Maria and three other mules including Maria’s best friend Blanca (Yenny Vega), board a plane to the US. Once in New York, things get crazy as two of the mules are detained for possible drug smuggling, including Maria. All she can think about is her baby and what will happen next.
