Plot Summary
Carlos (Douglas Spain) dreams of becoming an actor, but Pepe, his old man (Efrain Figueroa), won't have it. Instead of pursuing his dreams, Carlos will work in the more practical family business: male prostitution. Carlos joins the ranks of hustlers on the streets of Los Angeles, pretending to sell maps to the stars' homes. After a soap opera actress hires him for his services, she persuades the show's producers to allow Carlos a small role. Then Carlos watches his dream become a nightmare.
