Ruben's brief is simple. He is to go where she goes, shoot what she says, and exactly as she says. It works fine, until they cross a border that is not in their plans, and they are arrested with a newborn baby that does not look like either of them. While waiting for detectives from the capital, hundreds of miles away on a road that is barely a road, the arresting customs officer and his prisoner discover common interests, and forge a bond close to kinship. However, the friendship presents a dilemma to the incorruptible customs officer for, contrary to his new friends' protestations of innocence, he can see the baby does not belong to them.
