This is a coming of age documentary following a group of teenagers from an upper-middle class suburban East coast background, as they travel to Mexico to build houses for the impoverished Inhabitants of Tijuana. The documentary explores the changes that these teenagers undergo as they experience poverty, interact and build relationships with people from another Culture and socioeconomic background. The style is similar to American Teen, and The Amazing Race. Each of the five students is different. Stephen is the high school musical star-soccer player who plays the trumpet and is active in Key Club. John ‘Rocco’ is the 16 year old high school football player who spends his time hiking in the Adirandaks, playing poker, and making art. Leslie is the 17 year old high school girl who has everything she could ask for, and absolutely loves her ‘puppy’ Jack, a 120 lb dog. Tim is a 17 year old cross country runner who is active in almost every club in school and is prided for his smarts.

This year he has been called up to take on the task of Student Team Leader and organize the construction of the Meza Team. During the course of the film, each of the students changes as a result of experiences he or she has on the trip.
